@adrianc mentioned this 48 bit customer id a while ago being the the preempt to the bootldr you have to read the SPI locations listed below


@zadow28 hope you read this
http://www.datasheetarchive.com/inde...ASW0048081.pdf

Start reading from page 85
It also states where to read the chip id

The Read Serial Number Registers rd_serial_num0 and rd_serial_num1 contain 48 bits of customer ID data provided by the customer. The 48 bits are spread across the two registers. Address x‘000A’ contains the most significant 32 bits, and address x‘000B’ contains the least significant 16-bits. This pair of registers contains the same data as the serial_number MMIO register. The data in these registers is only valid after the POR sequence has completed because these registers are loaded from the configuration ring

It's just an identification number, You don't have to use SPI to read it as there is a corresponding MMIO register you can also read.

@adrianc said this about the 48 bit customer id

... and i now know exactly how the hw crypto works i have confirmed the existence of efuses and the OTP (bootrom) is real aka the prebootldr thats where you'll find the root key bootrom is not encrypted, you just cant see it (the CBE itself returns zeroes when you try to read it) and the efuses hold the root key, which is 48bits @ Cell BE die, located in persistent storage ibm docs state "A unique 48-bit customer ID can be defined by the customer." (in efuses)

i swear these people that respond exactly the same are sony spam bots to put down developers. who the **** is this jennifer14 or defyboy anyways? somehow they both seem to know a ton, maybe they can crack ofw 4.11

@Jennifer161 is a spam bot, who will not be here, when you read this message.

@defyboy is owner of the PS3 Dev Wiki, who will be here when you read this message.

Nah, whoever made the spambots, probably couldn't crack ofw 4.11. The spam bots are retarded.

lol my bad, i meant no disrespect. i assumed they were both bots
