PS2MENU Problem

[EugeneWE3RD]

I am running PS2MENU via the PS2 Independence exploit & I have the offical Sony HDD in my PS2. Everytime that I load up PS2MENU, it says add the bottom that:

Copy from Psf0:
ERROR: failed to mount filesystem: -6

Also on the top of PS2MENU, it doesn't tell me how much space I have on the HDD.

Does anyone know what the problem is because I would love to be able to copy homebrew games to the HDD. PS2MENU does work because I have some elf files on my memory card (transferred thru Xport) & I can run the elfs from PS2MENU, it's just that I can't copy them to the HDD.

If I make a directory on the HDD thru the PS2 browser, PS2MENU sees the directory but it can't copy files to the directory.

No, you don't need an HDD to use PS2MENU. The HDD is only needed if you want to copy the programs to the HDD. But be warned, the PS2 executable files which end in .elf which are copied to the HDD can only be loaded/run from PS2MENU.

Also, PS2MENU won't be able to copy files to the HDD without first creating a file system. To create the file system for the HDD so that PS2MENU has access to the HDD, you must download DMS-HDD-FORMAT-1_0.ZIP from http://www.dms3.com/cgi-bin/dms3/dlc...ips/DMS3_Tools
