    Default PS3 Memory Card Adaptor (CECHZM1) Allows Free MC Boot Install

    Found this on ps3news.

    Today PS2 homebrew developer jimmikaelkael has released Free MC Boot (FMCB) Loader v1.8c and MC2USB Adapter Tools while confirming that the PS3 Memory Card Adaptor (CECHZM1) now allows for Free MC Boot installations via PC.

    Additionally, he states that this new release is especially good for countries like Brasil, which imported their consoles from different Sony MagicGate regions.


    • You can now install FMCB from a PC to MC with these MC-Adapters!
    • You can sign MC-KELFs to your MCs directly from PC!
    • You can make multi-region-installs!
    • The FMCB1.8c-Loader finally includes the V0-Kernel-Fix for those old SCPH-1x000-Consoles (this gives users of those old models the ability to run a few homebrew-apps, which were previously incompatible to those versions)!


    To quote: We recently found a new way to install FMCB with the PlayStation3 Memory Card Adaptor (CECHZM1) connected to your PC. Since this device is somewhat cheap, it could be a good alternate way for those who don't have access to an already hacked PS2.

    The method consist of a command line software and using set of commands (or scripts) in order to install the FMBC hack properly. It also has the advantage to do a multi region/models installation.

    One restriction is that the software doesn't work with Datel's MC (mainly related with setting a proper termination code for communications) and maybe with some other brands, however it was tested successfully with official 8MB Memory Cards and with some crappy Chinese clones too.

    Currently the FMCB loader being installed is v1.8c which contain an important kernel fix for the 10K.

    The util to allow to communicate and sign the file for the MC was made by me and "someone who wants to stay anonymous". Note that without this anonymous contributor it would have been impossible to achieve it.


    So this is a loader that was originally for the PS2 hack and is now usable on the PS3 with the PS3 memory card adapter.

    This is for the PS2 ONLY guys! It's a way to use FreeBoot from PC with a PS3 MC adapter. Nothing for the PS3 here!

    if you open the mcboot download it's made up of elf files...isn't a .bin file for a ps3 pkg made up of compiled .elf files?

    I would imaging there's gotta be some way of making this run on ps3.

    Are you sure this is for PS2? The way I was reading it, it allows you to sign files on your PS2 memory card and then install it as a save on the ps3.

    This is not for ps3! This is an application to launch ELF files from a PS2 to run homebrew applications. It's just now that a PS3 MC adapter can be used to install this.
