[Crystal Chip] Is BootManager FULLY functional?

**Tatsh** · 12-11-2004,07:54 PM

I want to install programs using the BootManager included in 0.7 firmware of Crystal Chip. I got the MegaPack from this site recently and installed the programs, SUPPOSEDLY.

For some reason, I choose Install and pick the programs I want to install. They go in successfully it seems. I go back to the Application menu. I cannot choose Installed Applications, since it is grayed out. I choose Run, and the marquee at the bottom just freezes. I can hit TRIANGLE to get back to normal, but still no programs run.

Another problem was when I ran the PS2RealityMediaPlayer 1.50 and tried to copy it to my memory card, and it said it could not.

I wonder if this has to do with me having a PS2 V12, but regarding the bootManager, I don't think it has to do with my PS2 version.

Has anyone else been having this problem? Or is the BootManager not fully functional yet?

Make sure you have enough space on your memory card and make sure its in memory card slot 1. I was going crazy the first time the scripts were released. I even ran a support request through their support form. Then i realised i didn't have enough space on my card.

Ive been running programs off the memory card with no problem but I also have a question. when I load the mega pack disc, the elfs on the bak. script do not show up. Is there something Imust do to be able to see them?
what I ended up doing is taking off the bak. and remaking the disc so now I have all the programs that I
want.

The bak script was just there by accident. It was not meant to be released. I was using a hex editor that makes a backup everytime you save an edited document. The files there were just for experimenting. Another update may come soon. I have made more apps and emus comatible with BM. Now BM has more compatible ELFs than any other bootloader!

So far so good. Its the best bootloader out.
Thankyou for all your efforts.
Keep up the good work.

OK, thanks. I have about 6MB left on my memory card. But I'll burn a new copy.
