Can't See HDD When I boot into FMCB

If I load HDLoader, I can see and boot games, If I boot without FMCB and plug in my MC after boot I can see HDD and MC, but if I boot with FMCB the HDD does not appear in the Browser.

I installed with Noobie*underscore*Package*dot*rar
FMCB version is 1*dot*8b
PS2 is a large model. I can't tell what exact model. Maybe the ethernet adapter is covering it.
I'm using the Ethernet*slash*Modem*slash*HDD Adapter Sony made.
I'm using the HDD that came with FFXI.

If you need more exact model numbers I can get them after I'm done copying files.

PS: Sorry about the *et cetera*, the anti-url thing is triggering.

The HDD will only appear in the PS2 Browser after the browser update (Browser v2.00) is run from your HDD.

The problem with FMCB is that it doesn't allow that to happen - since it modifies and boots a copy of OSDSYS from the PS2's ROM, which doesn't have HDD support.

I think that FMCB has an option to skip the HDD update checking process, and it's on by default. Try turning that off, and see what happens.... although I am half-sure that you will lose the hacked OSDSYS after that.

If the cost is that much, I think I can be bothered to use a program like uLaunch to manage my files between my MC and HDD.

Thanks for the answer.
