Thank you for such a quick reply!
Is there any difference in size after installation on MC or it's just the difference in size of the installer on pendrive?
Is creating the folder SYS-CONF going to allow me to save the network configuration?
Might be worth to mention both netconfig saving issue and size difference on github repo, as I couldn't find anything about it anywhere, but it's up to you of course!
Offtopic:
What is that network configuration even used for? Seems like OPL netconfig is completely separate from FunTuna config?

There is no difference, the data written to the MC is the same, what differs is that one installer was compressed, the other one no.Thank you for such a quick reply!

OPL has it's own settings for network
wLaunchELF network setting file is generic, used by various applications

Thank you once again, blazing fast response and straight to the point. I really did not expect that within PS2 community, yet I was suprised a lot!
I confirm that creating SYS-CONF manually does fix this issue.
Quite odd that this bug exists, since uLe has create folder and Your installer also does create folders.
If you don't mind and remember where the corresponding code is, please do send a link to the specific line, I'll have a look at it and if by any chance I manage to figure it out, I'll send a PR.

@El_isra I have scph900x slim ps2 with matrix infinty mod chip and two memory cards with no magicgate support.
I want to acheive the following: i want to install funtona fork on mc1 and boot directly from mc0 to load funtuna on mc1 (i.e boot.elf on mc0 directs to boot.elf on mc1 and loads from mc1). how can i do this?

That program is designed to run KELFs installed as SYSTEM UPDATES
ie: Classic FreeMcBoot, PS2BBL, XEB+,etc...
FunTuna Fork is a decrypted FreeMcBoot installed as dev1, therefore, that program won't run FunTuna in any way
XEB+ ?
To be precise, Funtuna is using Funtuna or OpenTuna as an "entry" to load a decrypted FMCB Payload.
"XtremeEliteBoot + (PLUS)", see Frontpage-news!

I've just recently tested out this Funtuna fork on a MechaPwn-unsupported FAT PS2 (SCPH-39003), with a single Chinese, non-MagicGate 2×128MB (256MB, split into 2 pages) in both memory card slots, and it works without issues.
However:
Funtuna, the PS2 Memory Card browser exploit that corrupts the Memory Card icon-loading process, doesn't work if you have a Sony PSone memory card inserted into a PS2, as that exploit also relies on a file date that is stupidly far into the future for it to work:
2099/12/31 23:59:59
Problem is that Sony PSone savedata DOESN'T have date/timestamps, breaking that -Tuna exploit in the process, as the Sony PlayStation 2 treats such data as the sort that supercedes the aforementioned date, to the best of my interpretation of this phenomenon.
This means that I would suggest that if anybody wants to use that exploit, ONLY insert a -Tuna-exploited PS2 memory card at boot, until the exploit has been loaded & DON'T insert PSone memory cards or any memory card with a date/time surpassing the -Tuna exploit.
If, however, you ignore this advice, you will not be able to make the exploit work, and you will need to reboot the PS2 WITHOUT ANY MEMORY CARDS THAT BREAK THE EXPLOIT INSERTED INTO THE CONSOLE PRIOR TO EXPLOITING IT, but fortunately, making any mistakes mentioned in this thread will not result in the files on the -Tuna-exploited memory card, or any others, getting corrupted in the process, so there is no need to worry.
That said, another phenomenon I have noticed here is that if you have BOTH a Free McBooted memory card AND a Funtuna'd (with Free McBoot) memory card inserted into the PS2, and you initiate the Funtuna exploit, instead of the Funtuna exploit being initiated to start up Free McBoot, it instead launches (u/w)LaunchELF. This only happens when the Free McBooted memory card is in SLOT 1 and the Funtuna'd memory card in SLOT 2, BUT NOT VICE VERSA, and fortunately, this will not corrupt or cause harm to any data on ANY of your memory cards.
On that note, as far as my knowledge goes, the boot priority of the PS2 is as follows, based on trial and error:
CDVD drive > Memory Card Slot 1 > Memory Card Slot 2 > HDD/SSD in Expansion Bay > USB drive (if anything does get booted up from there, but I doubt it - feel free to correct me if I am wrong).
UPDATE: I've found two additional things since writing this particular post - and a little quirk
1. inserting a PSone/PS2/DVD/CD WILL ALSO BREAK the -Tuna exploit's initiation process, requiring you to take out the offending media (just like taking out the PSone memory card or any PS2 memory card with filesaves date-stamped newer than the -Tuna exploit), exiting the Browser and going into the main menu (black screen with orbs), and then re-entering into the Browser with ONLY the -Tuna memory card.
2. If you have any Japanese-language saves that are saved onto a -Tuna memory card, attempting to access/highlight them while in the Browser WILL CRASH YOUR PS2. Just reboot it and you'll be fine, BUT make sure such saves aren't on the same memory card as the -Tuna exploit-installed one if you don't want any problems.
3. Accessing a -Tuna memory card that is installed with use for SCPH-50000+ consoles on a pre-SCPH-50000 FAT or certain older SCPH-50000 consoles (my testing involved 2 SCPH-50000s, one with a DVD player version 3.00, which crashes, and one with a DVD player version 3.02, which works okay) WILL CRASH YOUR PS2. Again, reboot it, and you'll be fine.

Hey there! Is there any way for me to modify the installer in order to have it install OpenTuna with my own FunTuna.CNF and with the latest OPL 1.2.0 Beta 2156? I created this .CNF file to give my FunTuna a "stock" look, for those who don't particularly enjoy that native "custom" FMCB look which is kind of a mess. If this is possible, where do I start?
Here's my entire idea: edit the installer .ELF file to use this .CNF file and the latest OPL Beta during installation, then create an .ISO file from it and patch it with Free DVDBoot, so I can create FunTuna Memory Cards on slim consoles with no modchip and without needing an already-FMCB Memory Card.
Reason: I have a friend who owns an un-modded PS2 and a FunTuna Memory Card, but he doesn't understand much and might ruin the exploit on the Memory Card, so I'm thinking of burning a self-bootable FDVDB disc with the modified installer .ELF file in it. This way, he can just boot up the CD/DVD if he ever messes up his exploited MC and re-install FunTuna right away, without having to teach him how to install it, then change the FMCB configuration, update his OPL, etc.
