Well...the first thank to SKFU for help me in the traduction......


- All this is based on my studies on the inner workings of the wizard update on ps3, this does not mean it is 100% identical.

- It seems that the update wizard makes a couple of operations which I quote here.

The single-ps3updat.PUP containers are addons previous and new, so if we invoke the method recovery asks us the PUP which has all the tools to restore the system.

Step1-When we run the wizard updates the first thing it does is remove a location updater.self HDD to work independently of one's own internal system of the flash.

Step2-is appropriate to remove the internal modules and additions (addons) from the flash which belong to system files (file system) to locations HDD.

Step3-This makes a scan and identifies the addons taste of flash for not re-overwritten again "why only patch but not replace" the addons.

Step4-When did the reading of the addons of the old flash makes a reading of the new containing the PUP and adds to be introduced later in the flash again.

Step5-Apparently watching a version to another flash of the addons when we update change of location in the flash that makes us think that movements are created to dump in the HDD.

Step6-In the case of debug said that the functions debug power not be complete because only the addons installed but not the basis on which this core_os the (core or microkernel )........... ......

As I commented in Step3, if it scans and patched but does not replace would give us to understand that when we installed the incomplete debug log that creates the wizard detects the addons ... but there were not imagine that these addons duty of .... write that this supposedly storage in the PUP as if it were an initial installation.

Imagine that erase the addons to dump HDD as a means of transpaso temporary and backup files .... the flash is erased and then intro all those who appear in the log (both old and new )........

If you delete all addons former assistant duty realize that lacks Llosa and duty draw from its warehouse (PUP) files missing "in this case the basis of core debug and debug of all addons.

In the HDD are many fragments of files loose, she works with modules which are blocks 512bytes ...... not to alter the structure and encryption have to close each block with 512bytes but only for use 4bytes have to say hello fill the remaining make up 512bytes.

Where are empty spaces in the module repeats a sequence of similar 512bytes.

Looking at the HDD extracted module of the Memory Card PS2 and the PS1 inside the HDD of ps3.

As I commented in the preceding paragraph the Memory Card PS2 that are 8MB (he contrasted with information, Internet and memory official PS2 also uses 8MB) are repeated blocks in empty blocks 512bytes.

As it is the memory of PS2?
Well here's my evidence .......

Remove the dump of a module of the MC PS2 empty and another with a save of the devil may cry ......................

Comparing both found that the blocks of empty MC the module was similar and repeated every 512bytes .... however that the save had the devil of change when the data and use their blocks completed started again in the same block The module of the MC empty.

Procedure to erase the data belonging to save size and fill it with the ignition 00 .......... ps3 and look at the memory card created in the menu saves for PS2 ........ the icon of devil may cry ..... was corrupt and run the game as well know your before starting the game gets to scan the memory in search of old data because it ... I am flashing letters in an endless cycle if Disconnect the PS2 MC of the game worked perfectly and was continuing ... but if the reconnection is hanging or flashing letters again.

[Sublimewulf]

so what exactly did you do, explain your process in lamens terms

[OrOcKz]

the english was entirely too bad i stopped reading soon after the steps cause i couldn't exactly understand what you were saying. I understand what you were doing which was monitoring the update process but i couldn't understand what you were saying half the time.
