This is are the posts where he discussed about this topic:īut I've also found another thread where a PSX-Scene contributor, ShaolinAssassin wrote that you can't boot uLE from MC. ELFs from a PS2 memory card other than booting them from a USB drive, and he was referring to doing this on a FMCB incompatible model. Now, reading all those threads a notable PS2 modding scene member, dlanor, has stated that he uses Swap Magic to boot uLE and, more generally that you can boot homebrew software. Now, I've read a bunch of threads on various PS2 modding forums and apparently the only way to softmod my PS2 is to boot uLaunchELF (or maybe even the new project wLaunchELF) using a Swap Magic. So at this point I can say I'm quite sure my new PS2 is with bios 2.30. All of those installations worked on my hardmodded PS2 and thus FMCB booted with mc inserted, but none of them made FMCB boot on my new PS2 model.

I tried cross region, cross model and multi installation. So, I installed FMCB on a mc with my old hardmodded PS2. BIOS won't let your PS2 be compatible with FMCB.

Actually, it could be potentially compatible since it's a SCPH-90004 R-Chassis 8C (you can see it in the attached photo), and models with date code were made some with BIOS 2.20 and some with BIOS 2.30. In the past few days I've been trying to get as much info as possible and I found out that my new PS2 model isn't compatible with FMCB. I recently bought a second ps2 slim version (I already had and still have a PS2 slim modded in 2004 with a Modbo chip, SCPH-70004) and I want to softmod this new purchase in order to play my backups from PC via the Ethernet cable using OPL.
