I'ma test this on DEX firmware. No, wait. Still needs FSM? I wonder if glevand's boot_ps2 works with this in 3.55?
*fires up PS3*

Hmm, can't delete or overwrite files in dev_flash, even after enabling write access in MM. Don't want to brick another machine, so I'm done testing

Great news, thanks!

Please someone test a few games, it may have bugs since it's old emulator from 2.60 FW but worth a try

FSM not big deal really, but disk backups won't work? as in 'a backup disk where you backed up your original disk'? ouch

FSM is easy enough with with the factory service mode homebrew app and a USB stick to return to normal.

Do we know what putting the PS3 into FSM actually changes about things that makes this work?

HAs anyone tied the Boot_PS2 App with this?

Yeah it's not really a big deal, just a bit of a pain to switch back and forth from FSM(not all that different from dex upgrade/downgrade)
