Hi, is it possible to put the actual .ELF files on the ps2 hdd? Cuz on the launch menu, you could chose your target theres: the two mc's, the mass pendrive, the cd, and the hdd. I was wondering how to put elf files on the hdd so i don't have to keep using cd's. and maybe im just unlucky or something because i have spend hours searching google and i haven't found the answer but does anyone know?

probably not. But any program that is in .elf form probably started in cd form (which would work on the hd).

ok thanks for the reply. Yea hdloader came from the cd but my laser is dying and I want to use the disc as less as possible. So I'll just explain it more in depth just in case anyone else knows how.

i want the bootmenu to load from the memory card from the exploit and choose the hdloader elf from the hard drive so i only have to use about 100kb of memory on the card
