ProgSkeet PS3 Hardware Flasher Project is Announced

[HeyManHRU]

The E3 allows Dual booting with 1 hard drive, you just need to format it every time you switch firmwares, which is kinda annoying.

It wouldn't be properly functional without 2 drives. You'd lose all your saved games every time; more than just annoying!

[HeyManHRU]

On the website it says you can use 1 hard drive but you'll need to format it and update the PS3 every time you change the FW. I don't think you'll lose any saved data though.

Saved data isn't lost through formatting?

[HeyManHRU]

Well it depends on what team E3 meant by formatting. But know that you mention it I think you will loose your saved data.

I would get a 2.5 GB harddrive for CFW to keep all my games on it, and use the original internal HDD for OFW. I'll do that or use a HDD from one of my old fat YLOD PS3s.

I can help with others if they are needed it. I have installed many of these and will help where i am needed. Thanks

Has anyone here successfully downgraded, with progskeet. Whether the solder version or the sloderless? and outcome of the same. thanks

[HeyManHRU]

Yeah, like 2 months ago (http://www.ps3news.com/ps3-hacks-jai...stom-firmware/).

Just in case anyone wants to know the Nor solderless 360-clips are now available. So you know, you need a progskeet 1.1 or 1.0 with the added 50 pin zif connector. They run about $50 and they are a good grab if you want to dual boot solderless. (now if only they can release the dual nand adaptor life for me would be grand)
