How to install/use (1.50):

- on your PSP, create a connection with a *static* IP address
(UmdNetRipper uses the first such connection it finds).

- edit config.txt to reflect the IP address of your server
(your PC for instance); you may also change the port from
the default value 20000 into any other value you like.

- copy the two sub folders UmdNetRip and UmdNetRip% under
Drive:\PSP\GAME\ .

- copy config.txt to Drive:\PSP\GAME\UmdNetRipper

- on your PC, use any network listener that will dump a TCP
stream into a file. I used netcat (nc), which I have
included in the distribution (GNU License, I hope it was
OK to do that, wasn't it?):

nc.exe -l -p 20000 > file.rip

(on Windows, you may see a message from your firewall, asking
you whether to allow nc to listen to the network, it is safe
to say yes here).

- now go to your PSP, insert your favorite UMD, and activate
the ripper.

- the ripper will use the static connection, then it will try
to connect to your PC at the address you specified in config.txt.
If you are lucky, the ripper will recurse through the whole
of the UMD, transferring each and every file to your PC (if
you are not lucky, the rip will get "stuck" somewhere in the
middle; dont give up; read on).

- you will know if the rip ended successfully if you see a message
on your PSP screen saying "Rip terminated successfully". Do not
assume that it was successful if you do not see this.

- terminate netcat, pressing ^C, then create a subfolder on your
PC, like "My Favorite Game", cd to it and issue
..\unfold ..\file.rip
, where file.rip is the file you saved. Unfold will create the
whole directory structure on your PC. From then on, you may
use UMDGen or some other similar program to create an ISO file.
Please avoid piracy!

- if it got stuck, don't give up; you may retry. Most of the times,
it will work over a couple of tries. If it insists on getting
stuck, you may try resuming from the stuck point, by saving the
nc output to a different file the second time and using the
"skipupto" config directive to skip all the files that were
correctly transferred the first time. You will then need to
run 'unfold' twice, once for each rip file.

- at any time, you may press HOME to exit. Occasionally, and for
reasons I do not know, it will stick when trying to exit, so
you may need to pop out the battery. Most of the times it exits
OK, though.
