You can use google translator and spend some time to translate it. Or you can donate some money to berion

with an optimized 1% space .img root/Ryzentosh:/home/eruil/ps3# ./find_ps3_ufs2_byte_locations.sh superblock.img Minimum free space already configured to 1% Optimization type already set to SPACE with a non optimized superblock.img (ive made some tests in 3 other hdds, just to make some...

well at least it stays as precedent if it happens to anybody else . :D

i tested stat --printf="%s" /home/eruil/ps3/superblock.img but nothing happened , it never shown any error root@Ryzentosh:/home/eruil# stat --printf="%s" /home/eruil/ps3/superblock.img root@Ryzentosh:/home/eruil# but if you run again dd if=/dev/mapper/ps3hdd2...

i suppose that is a different syntax. i remember that einy used ubuntu 16.04.1 and some commands changed over ubuntu 18. SIZE=$(stat --printf="%s" $FILE inside find_ps3_ufs2_byte_locations ) maybe refers to watch allocation space in gameos superblock before and after 8% optimization...

eruil@Ryzentosh:~$ sudo su root@Ryzentosh:/home/eruil# insmod '/home/eruil/ps3/bswap16.ko' root@Ryzentosh:/home/eruil# cryptsetup create -c bswap16-ecb -d /dev/zero ps3hdd-bs /dev/sdc root@Ryzentosh:/home/eruil# cryptsetup create -c aes-xts-plain64 -d /home/eruil/ps3/ata_key.bin -s 256 ps3hdd...

basically its like a "partition name " and a "drive letter" (comparing with windows ) . just to make the recognition of the decrypted drive. so i guess the commands quick guide in LIVE mint its reduced to this (sdc its an example) : sudo su insmod '/home/mint/ps3/bswap16.ko' cryptsetup create...

im analyzing, in the way that i understand it ... sudo su = its used to get elevated privileges insmod '/home/mint/ps3/bswap16.ko' = it integrates bswap.ko kernel module to kernel cryptsetup create -c bswap16-ecb -d /dev/zero ps3hdd-bs /dev/sda (or sdb, etc...) cryptsetup create -c...

sdX (X its a variable ... so it can be anything ) . in my case sda, sdb, sdc, etc... its assigned depending in which sata port i connect ps3 hdd. its obvious that i dont have enough sata ports to watch a real dev sdX i know exactly what im looking at. im going to back up all seagate 1tb data...

so.. as i understood using Live mint cinnamon 19.2 (i hope this is the correct way to do it ) : sudo su insmod '/home/mint/ps3/bswap16.ko' cryptsetup create -c bswap16-ecb -d /dev/zero ps3hdd-bs /dev/sdX cryptsetup create -c aes-xts-plain64 -d /home/mint/ps3/ata_key.bin -s 256 ps3hdd...

i appreciate the info but i dont want to lose all my ps3 isos . if i delete the partition table with low level format (wipe mbr /partition table) its enough to re-use that hdd to enter secure mode and to reformat it with new CFw (i dont want to do that ) . i just want to install cfw again if...

Thats not so true pal. I got a problem with a seagate 1TB hdd that i modded with einys method. When i tried to update with rebug lite 4.86 CFW console freezes at 68 % (it freezes in secure mode too without any "waiting message" ) . I apologyze if my english its not so fluent . its not my mother...

ive read it before... i think this is the link with the information that can help ya. not quite sure https://www.psx-place.com/threads/tutorial-fixing-windows-disk-initalization.27599/

even if you decrypted with eid-root -key there is no such tool like a ps3 hdd cloner (the same reason: eid root key or encryption key) if you want to mount with a readonly option you need to copy eidrootkey file in ps3 hdd gui root folder (its not possible , as far as i know , when you...
