Well, We tried the combination you say, but the kernelloader now freezes after the kernelloader loads the kernel and initrd with the sentence: "Loading the modules" citronalco has already reported how to avoid this problem: kernel loader 1.8 and the new kernel work like a charm, mounting ...

we would like to know where we can download the latest kernel loader and kernel that works for ps2 slim. It is still the same since my last post. Testversion of kernelloader only for slim PSTwo: http://rapidshare.com/files/112377238/kloader.elf.html Testversion of Linux kernel only for slim PSTwo. ...

There is some general problem.

Did the adapter work with your computer? Did you connected it properly (keyboard and mouse exchanged)?

The official released version 1.8 can't do it. It is possible that the test version for slim PSTwo will work. There is no automatic installation. Currently you need to do it manually as described in http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?t=10156 . In general you need to setup your own initrd like th...

You also need to load fileXio.irx after iomanX.irx.

Could someone please tell me how do you use the linux install tutorial to install onto a USB Hard Drive? What parts do you have to change? The USB hard disc has a different device name (/dev/hd* -> /dev/sd*, /dev/ide/* -> /dev/scsi/*). Check disscussion above about device names. When you use USB ha...

hola,mega man I count him that I finally bought myself an adactador two in one, to connect the mouse and the keyboard via usb. now I do have the problem that the Kernelloade 1.7, it is not compatible with my ps2 v12. several messages behind you told me that parcherlo is needed. as I make it work? ....

Well i cant do anything with Kernelloader until it reads my USB KB. This is the old kloader 1.8 version, including updated modules: http://rapidshare.com/files/115436157/kloader.elf.html I put usbd.irx and usb_mass.irx into it, but keyboard driver was not working, so I used my old one. Seems that k...

I want to install linux and stumbled upon Mega Man's cool Linux elf thing.(http://mitglied.lycos.de/ps2dev/tutorial/howtoinstalllinux.html) Now i got a Phat old PS2, one of the launch ones and stuff but when Im about to boot linux from kernelloader i get to the screen where im supposed to start typ...

I don't have the toolchain set up yet. Could you please post both pukko versions? http://rapidshare.com/files/113298651/pukko.rom0.elf.html http://rapidshare.com/files/113298883/pukko.rom1.elf.html http://rapidshare.com/files/113300127/ps2bios_unpacker.exe.html So do you recommend any special howto...

I have a problem with kernelloader. I try instal Linux on my fat ps2 using pendrive but kernelloader don't recognaise mass and freeze. Can someone change usb driver in kernelloader on latest? My pendrive is working in ulaunchelf 4.12. I am not sure which is the best version to include. Could you do...

Did a quick test on my V15, and: It works! I can boot, initrd starts, usb keyboard is working! Great work Mega Man!!!! Now I know that my assumption was correct, that the IOP can't signal interrupts to EE using SMFLAGS. I used kernel loader's default config, but had to disable ADDRV to avoid the ke...

I changed the IRQ interface from SMFLAG to SIF command 0x20. This change is only for slim PSTwo. Use on other consoles is not recommended. Can someone test if USB is working on the slim PSTwo. Every interrupt is printed with printk in kernel. You can see this with Linux command "dmesg". Te...

You used at least for one C file the compiler ee-g++. Then you need to use it also as the linker. When you want to access a C++ symbol from C, you need to place a "extern "C" { ... }" around it.

You are using the wrong compiler. The file "y.tab.o" was created by your native host compiler, but you need to use the ee-gcc cross compiler.

As far as I remember the module "fileXio.irx" needs to be loaded before the keyboard driver.

Using your default settings, the kernel comes up, unpacks the initrd.gz and then panics. Same result with the minimal modules set (sio2man or xsio2man). When the init process got killed or mounting is not correctly working, you will see such behaviour. I see this behaviour when I try to mount a USB...

I would suggest to use a newer loader, which loads newer modules. Some old modules have problems. A better way is to reset the IOP and load the correct modules. Earlier I detected, that it it is sometimes not possible to load fonts into gsKit, because the size reported by fread() was too small. I re...

I've uploaded Kernelloader 1.8. - Kernelloader can now read CDs, DVDs and burned video DVDs. - Compressed ELF files are supported (gzip). - ELF files are checked for completeness before start. - Configuration file is automatically loaded from DVD (cdfs:config.txt), if no configuration was found on M...

But when I try to create the third partition, it says something about the available sectors and gives an error. When you do it as described in the tutorial, then the second partition takes all the remaining hard disc space. You need to make it smaller. The tutorial uses "+128M" to make th...

I'm trying to get linux running on a mod-chipped ps2 slim v15, dreaming of something like loading kernel & initrd from usb or cd and mounting the rootfs via nfs. After some try and error which modules to load and which not I got the kernel running from usb and get to the point where the init pr...

Im trying to install Linux (BlackRhino) on my PS2 using USB Memory Stick and the tutorial by Mega Man. I am not sure if you want to install from USB memory stick on the internal hard disc. The tutorial covers only this. Parameters are different when you don't use the internal hard disc, but an othe...

usb_mass needs some time to detect the USB stick. So just try to add a sleep or reconnect the USB device.

Keyboard supported in: Kernelloader: - USB Keyboards with bootstrap support (CLASS=HID, SUBCLASS=BOOT(1)) Linux 2.4.17: - All keyboards should work within Linux. WARNING: It is possible that USB is not working on your slim PS2. I've an idea how to fix it (by a workaround and a kernel patch), but I c...

I setup a project page at sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/kernelloader/ The files are automatically mirrored. So there will be no download problems in future. I got video DVDs working with kernelloader, but I will need some time for the next release. Here is the code for everybody who i...

Until now I wasn't sure if you wanted to report success or are asking a question. I don't know what "istalar" or "haceme" is. I believe that you want to know how to install PS2 Linux on a USB memory stick. The offical way to change the root file system is not working. Currently t...

Megaman, is there any news about USB and CD/DVD with PS2Slim? Can I help with somenthing? I have a PS2Slim 79001 moded. Currently I have less time to work on it. USB: Problem: Interrupts are not reported to the EE. I think that the interrupt registers have changed. Possible workaround: Use RPC comm...

any 1 got a idea why my usb keyboard won't let me type in anything into the prompt? I thought you meant that you can't type within Kernelloader. Kernelloader doesn't support all keyboards, but Linux should support all keyboards. Did you tried to connect the keyboard at a different time (before Linu...

I loaded the SMS CDVD driver, but I only see an empty directory of a video DVD (checked this with pressed DVDs and burned DVDs). PS1 CDs and PS2 DVDs are working. I only tried my existing DVDs without extra files.
Did someone know if SMS shows the VIDEO TS folder or other DVD video specific files?

This website is already the best I could find for free. Most providers doesn't let me upload big files. They fear to death, that someone could upload illegal mp3s. It would be nice when you could mirror it.
