1. <Squarepus> when Math only did your box
  2. <Squarepus> and didn't give you the method necessarily
  3. <RichDevX> :)
  4. <durandal> he gave me enough of the method
  5. <RichDevX> no he didn't
  6. <Squarepus> so we have a problem here dude - you have something right now that you're keeping to yourself
  7. <Squarepus> same as Math
  8. <RichDevX> you have NO clue how he does it
  9. <Squarepus> doesn't bode well for a public group
  10. <RichDevX> Squarepus, trust me, it'll never be released for reasons I can't disclose
  11. <durandal> you get math to message me and say i can release his part then fine
  12. <durandal> cause my shit is contingent on that
  13. <durandal> and RichDevX you are correct
  14. <durandal> the FiveJewBankers own the method
  15. <Squarepus> so in other words
  16. <Squarepus> Gitbrew now totally relies on Math

  20. <Squarepus> 'to pull out any and all support'
  21. <Squarepus> what you mean?
  22. <Squarepus> in that you no longer get to hijack the process
  23. <Squarepus> and get to convert boxes?
  24. <durandal> i mean that geoff levand's done a lot to make our kernel hacks part of the mainstream linux kernel release
  25. <durandal> and also get us legitimate status with several linux distros
  26. <Squarepus> dude that is not what any of this shit is about
  27. <Squarepus> and you know it
  28. <Squarepus> that is not why you are withholding CEX-.DEX
  29. <Squarepus> come on
  30. <Squarepus> don't play this BS game
  31. <durandal> basic rules for dealing with sony: don't rls dex shit
  32. <durandal> or you get fucked
  33. <CrashSerious> wait, what's sony supporting?
  34. <CrashSerious> last I knew it only did much less than when I gought it.

  49. <nikitis> k, i'll try it out soon
  50. <nikitis> can it be used on external sdcard? or internal only?
  51. <Snowy> unsure i used internal
  52. <nikitis> does it need formatting to ext2?
  53. <Snowy> the internals have to be either ext2 or 3
  54. <daxgr> ext4 ftw!
  55. <nikitis> so i gotta format
  56. <nikitis> or resize with gparted

  118. <durandal> if you set the shit to release

  152. <RichDevX> that's not signing though :|
  153. <durandal> it signs as part of it
  154. <durandal> you have to sign the files in it
  155. <RichDevX> nope
  156. <durandal> runs on mine after i do that
  157. <RichDevX> yes, but it's not a signature
  158. <durandal> yeah you don't need to do real sigs on dex shit
  159. <durandal> they run fake signed shit
  160. <RichDevX> no no, I mean debug pkgs aren't signed
  161. <RichDevX> at all
  162. <RichDevX> there's a hash at the end that you are free to modify
  163. <durandal> and they won't run on your shit?
  164. <RichDevX> I've known the pkg format for years, just wondering why you mean by signing
  165. <RichDevX> what you mean*
  166. <durandal> huh?
  167. <RichDevX> because the scene will interpret it very differently
  168. <durandal> i'm sorry
  169. <durandal> maybe i don't understand what you're asking through all the pain
  170. <durandal> please rephrase the whole thing
  171. <RichDevX> What does a signature mean to you?

  206. <jordosaxman> going to update as i do this this time, and if it fails, just give up probably
  207. <jordosaxman> after installing the cfw, my free space under xmb is 16 GB / 149 GB

  223. <npt> RichDevX: only got home late wednesday
  224. <npt> then worked thurs, fri
  225. <npt> stayed out too late last night
  226. <npt> just woke up at 1am after having laid down @ 7, there's a story behind it but if you wanna hear, I won't pollute the chan : )
  227. <jordosaxman> I'm downloading the firmware which allocates 22GB for otheros, and installing it
  228. <jordosaxman> I'm still unclear why i'm getting access denied errors on some busybox commands
  229. <jordosaxman> is that normal?
  230. <jordosaxman> I shouldn't have less space than needed for the resize, since the drive has nothing on it
  231. <RichDevX> damn work, why can't we be given money for free xD
  232. <npt> agreed - if only that could happen, I could actually have time to FINISH my dang game
  233. <durandal> RichDevX: talk to the VA
  234. <durandal> they give free monies
  235. <durandal> if they don't fuck up your pension :D
  236. <eussNL> if you are using an empty drive and the 22GB pup the mention of 16GB free doesnt make sence, unless the drive is failing jordosaxman
  237. <eussNL> perhaps a reformat in PC, then reinstall the firmware from scratch?
  238. <eussNL> then look at values in XMB, BEFORE doing the Recovery resizer
  239. <eussNL> then do recovery resizer and note the values again
  240. <eussNL> let me know how it works out :)
  241. <RichDevX> k, solution is ready. goodbye everyone :)
  242. * RichDevX has quit (BRBFBI: Leaving)
  243. <jordosaxman> no, the 16gb refers to the 1/8 HDD size CFW
  244. <durandal> is he killing himself?
  245. <durandal> that would be a good solution
  246. <jordosaxman> i'm in petitboot on it, and running the create_hdd_region.sh script is the problem
  247. <jordosaxman> if I run it ./create_hdd_region.sh auto
  248. <jordosaxman> i get a line 44 error on ps3hvc_hvcall
  249. <jordosaxman> and a number of storage devices: -
  250. <jordosaxman> 0
  251. <jordosaxman> and sh: invalid number (i'm assuming this refers to my use of auto instead of an integer
  252. <jordosaxman> if i use the script with a chmod prefix
  253. <jordosaxman> i get chmod: read only file system
  254. <eussNL> what if you use ´list´
  255. <jordosaxman> under what directory?
  256. <jordosaxman> list is not found, but ls works
  257. <jordosaxman> the working directory is root@ps3-linux:/#
  258. <jordosaxman> ls
  259. <jordosaxman> wrong keyboard
  260. <jordosaxman> ls under my root directory gives me bin etc lib overlay proc root sys usr www dev mnt rom sbin tmp
  261. <jordosaxman> is there any more complete way to start over than installing the 22GB firmware and running restore ps3 system under recovery?
  262. <eussNL> ./create_hdd_region.sh list
  263. <jordosaxman> i get the same thing eussnl
  264. <jordosaxman> line 44 error
  265. <jordosaxman> sh: invalid number
  266. <jordosaxman> number of storage devices: 0

  273. <jordosaxman> still working on my otheros woes
  274. <jordosaxman> into petitboot now at least and learning to use linux, having issues with the scripts finding my drive
  275. <Snowy> ohai BobbyBlunt
  276. <BobbyBlunt> :)
  277. <npt> question: would the decr syscon be able to give what is wanted if it was REMOVED from a broken decr-1k?
  278. <jordosaxman> even after installing the 22GB otheros pup, my xmb still reads 16 GB /149 GB
  279. <jordosaxman> can I correct this issue using parted from the shell?
  280. <jordosaxman> or is there a way to force the ps3 to reformat the entire drive?
  281. <nikitis> npt not sure anyone knows that
  282. <npt> gotcha nikitis, thanks for the answer
  283. <nikitis> jordon, boot into recovery mode and use option 5 to clean drive
  284. <nikitis> then reinstall petitboot and run create hdd script
  285. <nikitis> if it fails, you may not be doing something right
  286. <nikitis> and if you are, then you're drive is failing
  287. <jordosaxman> when I run create hdd script, what do i put after it? any numbers?
  288. <nikitis> nothing
  289. <nikitis> just ./createhddscript.sh
  290. <nikitis> or whatever it's called
  291. <jordosaxman> k 111 GB / 149 GB now, which is correct, that's about 22 GB set aside after the amount used by gameos
  292. <nikitis> yes
  293. <jordosaxman> setup flash for otheros beeps 3 times, turning off and turning back on ps3
  294. <nikitis> now go through steps to get petitboot
  295. <jordosaxman> same errors as before
  296. <jordosaxman> ps3hvc_hvcall: not found
  297. <nikitis> where are you pulling the script from?
  298. <jordosaxman> a usb drive
  299. <jordosaxman> located at /tmp/petitboot/mnt/sda1
  300. <nikitis> put that crap on the local drive
  301. <nikitis> and try
  302. <nikitis> or better yet, get the url and do a wget from petitboot
  303. <jordosaxman> k
  304. <nikitis> and just run it from the root dir that petitboot starts you in
  305. <jordosaxman> permission denied when trying to run it from the directory i start in
  306. <nikitis> you are root correct?
  307. <jordosaxman> "/bin/ash: ./create_hdd_region.sh: permission denied"
  308. <jordosaxman> yeah root@ps3-linux
  309. <jordosaxman> since su and sudo don't work here
  310. <jordosaxman> sometimes prefixing it with busybox will give it to me
  311. <nikitis> sh create.sh?
  312. <nikitis> jor
  313. <nikitis> try chmod +x create_hdd_script.sh
  314. <nikitis> then ./create_hdd_script.sh
  315. <jordosaxman> same error
  316. <nikitis> sh create_hdd_script.sh
  317. <nikitis> ?
  318. <jordosaxman> even if i prefix it with sh, same error
