Questions about CFW 4.21?

Hi
I wanna install the new 4.21 Rogergo CFW and i have a few questions.
1. Do i need to install Kmeaw before installing the 4.21 CFW? If so then i'm on TB CFW so should i install OFW 3.55 and then install Kmeaw? BTW the Kmeaw download link is removed from the PS3Devwiki so i f someone could provide a second download link. That will be great.
2. Is there a risk of bricking when installing the CFW? I am going to reset Syscon just like it was said here ( http://www.tortuga-cove.com/forums/v...?t=3636&p=8516 ) just to be safe anyway but even after that, will there still be a chance of bricking?
3. I know this is kinda of a n00bish question.. But how to dump the NOR/NAND using Multiman? I never cared about it but now i wanna know just to be safe.
4. Does the latest version of MM works on the new CFW? Or does it have problems with it?
And thanks for all the help!

1) Do not got from TB to cfw4.21, as we've said fromt eh beginning TB are scum! They added **** that ****s you up, if you try to update from TB cfw you will brick. So yeah ofw 3.55 is fine

2) There is always a chance to brick your PS3, be it cfw or ofw; anything that goes wrong when overwriting data on chips can cause bricks.

3) idk, some say mmcm can do that in it's options somewhere

4) apparently


Best thing to do is wait a week. This allows those who know what they are doing and have flashers test the cfw for us, without us taking any risks; and also let's the idiots who dont listen install this cfw and brick their console which gives us a better idea of how likely the chances of a brick are.

So just wait for others to test to make sure it's all working OK before doing anything, the most you want to do is just download the pup file cos $ony are gonna try to remove it asap. Though from the looks of it a v1.01 may be needed.
