CEX to DEX (translated from Italian site) :

I decided to simplify the original guide (which you can find it here) as new tools have emerged.

Requirements:
1) A PS3 with Firmware 3:55 or less (if less than you should upgrade to 3.55), you must install this CFW using Recovery Mode : [url=http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/cfw/CFW355-OTHEROS++-SPECIAL.PUP] : http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/cfw/CFW355...S++-SPECIAL.PUP

2) A USB keyboard and mouse;

3) Red Ribbon Linux on your PS3, you should download and burn this ISO : http://garr.dl.sourceforge.net/proje...ribbon_rc5.rar
4) CEX2DEX, downloadable from here : http://puu.sh/IY92

5) metldrpwn, downloadable from here : http://ps3devwiki.com/files/devtools/dump-...r/metldrpwn.zip

6) (Optional) although unlikely, is possible brick, so I recommend you have E3 flasher.


Installing Linux:


PKG download these:
- http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/pkgs/setup...for_otheros.pkg
- http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/pkgs...ll_otheros.pkg
- http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/pkgs/boot_otheros.pkg
- http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/pkgs/reboot.pkg

And download one of these two files (if you have a NOR take the first, if you have a second NAND).
1. dtbImage.ps3.bin (NOR) : http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/peti...bImage.ps3.bin

2. dtbImage.ps3.bin.minimal (NAND, to be renamed in dtbImage.ps3.bin) : http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/petitboot/...ps3.bin.minimal

Put everything in the root of a USB device and install the PKG.
Each application you start before returning to the XMB will make 3 beeps the console, if you do not hear these 3 beeps try again.
1. Run "Setup for OtherOS FLASH", turn the console back to the XMB and restart.
2. Start the "Install OtherOS" (the key with the file dtbImage.ps3.bin must be inserted).

Now connect a USB keyboard and a USB to the console and launched from the XMB "OtherOS Boot" and "Reboot". You'll find yourself in "Petitboot".
Using the keyboard, select "Exit to shell" and press enter.
Type the following commands:

mount -n -o remount,rw /dev/sda1 /tmp/petitboot/mnt/sda1
Codice:
dd if=/dev/ps3nflasha of=/tmp/petitboot/mnt/sda1/flashCEX.bin bs=1024

Now you dump your NOR / NAND USB stick. Turn off the console (ctrl + alt + delete or power button).

Now insert the stick into your PC and extract the folder "metldrpwn" from the "metldrpwn.zip" in the root of the USB stick.
CEX2DEX Start, select your dump and click "Extract metldr", save the file as "metldr" folder "metldrpwn" on your USB stick.

Go back to your PS3, plug in the USB key and the CD with the iso burned previously. From the XMB start again "OtherOS Boot" and "Reboot".
This time from Petitboot selected "Red Ribbon OTHEROS live" and wait for the upload.
If you do not have a USB hub you unplug the keyboard and mouse to attack, click the first icon in the upper left -> Accessories -> Terminal. Reconnect the keyboard.

Type the following commands in Terminal:

sudo umount /dev/sda1
sudo mkdir usb
sudo mount /dev/sda1 usb
cd usb/metldrpwn/
sudo make
sudo sh run.sh

Will appear written, if all goes well you should read it somewhere "problem status (0x00000089)".

Type the following commands:

cd ..
sudo cp /proc/metldrpwn/dump usb/dump
sudo shutdown -h now

The system will shut down.
Go back to your PC and start CEX2DEX, select new dump your flash and the file "dump" that will be on your USB stick, click CEX-> DEX, now you save a file, name it "flashDEX.bin" and save it in the root USB stick.



Return to the PS3, connect the USB stick and remove the CD.
Start again "OtherOS Boot" and "Reboot" on Petitboot select "Exit to shell"



Type the following commands:

mount -n -o remount,rw /dev/sda1 /tmp/petitboot/mnt/sda1

WARNING : The following command will write the changes on your flash (NOR / NAND) and if you did something wrong you could brick. I do not take responsibility.

dd if=/tmp/petitboot/mnt/sda1/flashDEX.bin of=/dev/ps3nflasha bs=1024

Now download a firmware from here DEX : http://ps3devwiki.com/files/firmware/OFW-DEX/

and place it in X: \ PS3 \ UPDATE \ PS3UPDAT.PUP (X: is your USB stick) :

Turn on the console in recovery mode and select system update. Now you have a Debugging Station.

I invite the moderators to include the source of the guide is: http://ps3mod.altervista.org/ because it is our exclusive. Thank you.

It has nothing to do with your guide. As it was written by someone else who has no link with your site. Hence your guide was out before but nothing was taken in account with.

It is not even an exclusive lol.
