Hi,

Can someone give me a step-by-step guide on installing MyPS2?
I know nothing about making MC Exploits or something. I a total NOOB.
I have a Matrix Infinity Chip in my PS2.

Greetz,
Vincent

Yeah, I need the steps too. I am currently using DMS4 Lite w/ Toxic BIOS 1.3or something. I do not know how to get it to work or how I should do it, can somebody help me and Sheep?


BTW!!!!!!! My Ps2 is a Slimline, and not online configurated. I tried to get it configurated, but it never worked.

Funny thing happened, I tried following the intructions, and when the step that said type in 'C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\Dungs Boot Cd\Dungs Dummyfile Maker' in 'Run' and I did that, but an error came up.

where does it say that
this is the readme

1. Extract all the files from dungs dummy creator.zip in c:\dummyfile,
2. Go to Start--> Run
3. The Run dialog box shows up. Now we are going to enter the command
4. In the dialog box type in c:\dummyfile\resize +200000000 000dummy.zip
5. A little dos box comes up and tells you its creating, it takes a 1 min or so.
Don't do anything else while its creating the files.
6. The dummy file is created
7. Go to the C:\dummyfile and rename 000dummy.zip to 000dummy.dat
8. Now you are set with a 200 meg dummy file,
9. now add the dummy file to dungs boot cd folder
10. now open nero or any burning program to make a cd rom udf/iso
11. now add all the files and folders in dungs boot cd including the dummy file you just
made (dont add the zip File) then write.
pop in ps2 and then follow myps2 setup

I just worked out where you went wrong, you must extract dummyfile maker to c:dummyfile
nowhere else
not c:\documents and settings etc
just C:dummyfile

Well ok, I made the image cd successfully, and I did followed every single step, but I noticed that duing the launchelf thingy, it said "save failed" on the top right corner.

After I was done every step, I tried launching my ps2, and it went to a black screen and top right corner said something like launching blah blah balh... but then it froze.

BTW I burnt every single file exept like the dummy rar file.

I have a dms3 mod and i have followed the steps made the cd, loaded it to the memory card but the only way i can get it to boot up is to have the cd in my ps2.Also my 40 gig maxtor isn't showing up.

you need the cd.
if you want to run it in dev mode, you will need to change the MYPS2.ELF to BOOT.ELF put it in another folder before burning to cd as there is already a boot.elf and they will conflict, so make a folder and call it anything you like and put the myps2 elf changed to boot elf now when you copy everthing to MC copy the boot elf to mc0:BOOT\
now when you start in dev mode it will boot myps2

I try to boot myps2 from a cd via launchelf. If I press R1/2 L1/2 while booting I get as far as the initializing usbd... if not, it hangs on the initializing gamepad. I tried putting the usbd driver on the install cd to no avail. I have no HDD yet, as is correctly detected.

Any suggestions?

it wont boot from cd, you must load it to MC because the install scripts written into MYPS2.ELF look for the boot sequence in mc0 not cdrom

Have you followed it exactly and put all the folders and elf into the myps2 directory you just made, recheck all folders and elf were pasted and it should boot

Yup. Thanks. Impressive little thing myPS2. All I need now is to get a decent format of the HDD (DMS Format Tool fails to allocate more than half the space in each partition) and the ftp server only let me log in but not transfer to.

Well, it's progress... :)

I installed it on the mc, it starts booting and says "....failed to load ps2atad (-200), initializing memory card, initializing gamepad

and here it hangs, nothing happens. It would be nice if anybody could help.
