Hacked BM1.6 problem with applications installation - Please help me

[pstwo4u]

I am trying to install applications, which then could be started from bootmanager.
The problem I have , is that the bootmanager does not see any of the applications on the cdrom.

My cdrom contains the following files:

Folder 0, contains a file 0.000 of 51200 KB
Folder HDLOADER contains the files:

HDLFPP.ELF 656 KB
INSTALL.PBT 1 KB with the contents:

SET SRC "$PWD"
SET DST "mc0:/BOOT/HDLOADER"
_MKDIR "$DST"
COPY "$SRC\HDLFPP.ELF" "$DST/HDLFPP.ELF"
COPY "$SRC\REMOVE.PBT" "$DST/REMOVE.PBT"
COPY "$SRC\RUN.PBT" "$DST/RUN.PBT"
UNSET SRC
UNSET DST

REMOVE.PBT 1 KB with the contents:

SET SRC "mc0:/BOOT/HDLFPP"
_RM "$SRC/HDLFPP.ELF"
_RM "$SRC/REMOVE.PBT"
_RM "$SRC/RUN.PBT"
_RMDIR "$SRC"

RUN.PBT 1 KB with the contents:

LOADEXEC "EEELF" "moduleload" "-m rom0:SIO2MAN" "-m rom0:MCMAN" "mc0:/BOOT/HDLOADER/HDLFPP.ELF"

The file INSTLIST.PBT with the following contents:

SET SRC "$PWD\HDLOADER"
SET DST "mc0:/BOOT/HDLOADER"
SET "TITLE" "HDLOADER"
SET "VERSION" "v0.7C"
SET "AUTHOR" ""
SET "DESC" "Hiermee kun je spellen op je harddisk zetten, en afspelen."
SET "INSTALL_PBT" "$SRC\INSTALL.PBT"
SET "REMOVE_PBT" "$DST/REMOVE.PBT"
SET "RUN_PBT" "$DST/RUN.PBT"
ADDINST "$TITLE" "$VERSION" "$AUTHOR" "$DESC" "$INSTALL_PBT" "$REMOVE_PBT" "$RUN_PBT"
UNSET "TITLE"
UNSET "VERSION"
UNSET "AUTHOR"
UNSET "DESC"
UNSET "INSTALL_PBT"
UNSET "REMOVE_PBT"
UNSET "RUN_PBT"

Everything should be ok.

I burned a cdrom as data disk with the above contents.
Then loaded the cdrom, pressed reset, and boot manager BM1.6 was started.
Then I selected "Application Browser" and "Install Application", but nothing was seen.

Can somebody help me ??

You seem to be using the old file system, the latest BM's replaced install.pbt, remove.pbt, and run.pbt with one file - appinfo.pbt (I don't remember with which BM version this started).
I'd suggest downloading the latest BM megapack maker2.23 (http://www.ps2-scene.org/forums/showthread.php?t=40852&highlight=bm+megapack) and either add/modify apps to install them, or use it to view the various appinfo.pbt files for examples.

I downgraded the chip to v0.1.4 in order to get it working.
After I returned the pstwo to the owner, I did find the hacked firmware package R16 , so I did not try that yet.

The link of BM megapack maker 2.23 is not working anymore, do you have another link for me ?

[fancypants]

that's strange, link still works for me. you can find it on this forum, posted 10.31.05 by The Agent entitled "BM megapack Maker 2.23!" or google it. hope that helps.

I install v0.16 firmware, but still use the v0.14 Boot Manager for all my customers. I find the 0.16 BM and the new software pack to be a bit problematic. I tried making a new version with HDLoader, KeyLauncher, Launch ELF and a few other programs, but I can not get most of them to work.

launchelf has problems for sure. I havn't tried hdloader with BM for some time. hdl has always been a problem to run under BM. Is anyone else having problems executing hdl?

[anarchy2007]

Agent,

Could you help me with the script for KeyLauncher? It needs a KL.DAT to be copied to BEDATA-SYSTEM. With BM0.14 I copied KEYL.ELF and KL.DAT to the BEDATA-SYSTEM folder and changed the run script accordingly.

Hi, i've been having the same problem and I would like to ask if you need to make any changes to the BM maker application files in order to make them work on the ps2? You see, i've downloaded the files and burnt them to a CDR, but still it won't show in the BM app menu?

Please help me and have a nice day :-)

I have never had trouble booting HDL from BM on V12/13 with HD-Connect PSTwo's or v1-v10 PS2's.

Now the BM 1.6 is buggy in other areas. My main grip is the PAL game on NTSC bug. For whatever reason BM 1.6 is not patching the video correctly. The work around for this so far has been to use BM 1.4.

I think he meant with BM1.6
