Taken from ps3hax.net

With all the service mode talk, and attempts how to get the PS3 into this mode, a unnamed hacker recently leaked the PS3 JIG Setup files.




he setup folder is actually pretty useless without the proper related software but nevertheless its something new and gives us another opportunity to better understand the PS3.

Break down of what each file is:

Lv2diag.self: crashes on a Debug console, likely used for lv2 diagnostics.

PS3UPDAT.PUP: a very tiny updater PUP, enough for just a 'base' system. It doesn't run on any system the resident PS3 Devs currently have access to.

UPDATER_LOG.TXT: simply a service mode updater log.

Below is a example of a JIG-OS Updater process log file, created by installing a special PUP file with service tools (used by Sony Repair stations).

It's kinda like in the PSP scene with the whole pandora jig kick battery. Sony uses these files, along with a particular, unknown software, whenever your PS3 gets semi-bricked, whatever. It basically puts it into service mode.

Obtaining these files are a step in the right direction, however, as stated above, they are pretty much useless right now as we don't have access to the software Sony uses with these files.

By the way, I don't mean to get off topic, but have you guys heard of that Italian guy and his team that are working on some PS3 exploit or something?

Seen it Here

I have a theory (small one I might add) that if sales get real poor maybe $ony's dev team may leak source codes to hack there own system to stimulate sales growth.

I really do hope it gets hacked (not just for backups) to see the full potential of the PS3.

They only loose money on consoles sold, they only make money off the games. So selling more consoles by kick starting the ps3 to be hacked is doubly bad for Sony. And I highly doubt they're going to give away the unhackable title like that.
