I have some few questions that I can't get clear answers on.

First of all I have a dms3+ (2.3 as default firm) with a 500004 pal ps2.

* Hdloader orginal says this is not a valid ps2 disc on BACKUP discs. Works on ORIGINAL discs. I have heard that the chip turns it self of after hdloader boot.
- Correct? Any solution?
- Is there a way to get hdloader.elf from the orginal disc? I have one but I only find the SLES file.

* Hdloader FREE dont't work on memcard as dms3 team said about the warez version. It hangs on checking cd/dvd.
- Correct me if I´m worng?

My last question is. If I get the hdloader.elf NON warez version like the one that should be on my hdloader disc but is built in the sles file. Put it on the mem and boot as dev1. Will hdloader then accept backup discs or do I have to wait for 2.4 firmware for this to work?


PS hope you understand my poor english!
