I have a (Fat) modded PS2. I am able to boot a copy of HD Advance 3.0 to play all games located on the installed hard drive.
However, The DVD drive and laser are very old and worn on the PS2 and it takes several attempts to get the dvd to boot.
Question:
Is there a way to load HD Advance onto the Hard drive and have the PS2 boot directly to it with out a trigger cd in the drive.

I have the following:
Network capability with the PS2 from my PC
USB Memory Stick
Multiple PS2 Memory cards
and access to just about any software available

Is it possible?
And How?

Thanks to all who may reply
