How I backup before a firmware update

[ps3love]

Hi,

How should I make a backup (dump) of PS3 before a firmware update, so in the future if possible do a downgrade.

You need an Infectus Mod-Chip to do it currently... check their Web site (http://www.infectus.biz/) for all the related details, software downloads, guides, forum help, etc.

Well i was looking for something that didn't involve opening up the PS3 and voiding the warranty I see i must wait a little more.

I needed the DIVX playback capacity of 2.10 firmware i am currently at 1.97 that came from origin with the 40GB PS3
