166w ago - Just over a month ago the PS3 Hypervisor lv2 (GameOS) was dumped and
GeoHot hinted that it was accomplished by commanding an SPU to load METLDR.
Today
dondolo let us know that
simone has detailed how to load METLDR in SPU isolation mode on the PlayStation 3 and included some
source code.
While this is definitely a step forward, he still doesn't specify what the read/write u32 functions are... or which functions to add to the recent
XorHack release.
Those interested can check it out below, and to quote:
"After some experiment I succeded to load METLDR in spu isolation.
You need geohot's exploit to do this, because you need to turn spu relocation off (MFC_SR1[R]=0) and not let know the HV you are using a SPU (so no calls to lv1_construct_logical_spe or similar). For some strange conf, it doesn't work in HV way."
Does anyone else have Iris manager make their PS3 go nuts? I'm on Rebug Rex 4.30.2 and it causes the PS3 to apparently heat up so badly the yellow lig...
CJPC said he would once the missing details are available (what the read/write u32 functions are, which functions to add to the XorHack, etc) so no worries.
Definitely, the lv2 dump needs to be in the eyes of more than a select group of people who keep all the useful things internal and then whine when people want updates. There are countless others willing to help out without the egos or hypocritical anti-warez stance.
SkyOfHitmen: Nice to see you around... I'm sure you're aware that what GeoHot last posted was parroted from loser, who helps talented folks like GeoHot when he has the time but doesn't wish to get involved in scene BS.
Anyway, whatever you may contribute will be welcomed of course!
You are not the bad guy in this game. The french man and egohot are holding back informations...
Sooo... keep up the good work
