Hi.
I have looked everywhere and gone through about 4 CDRs but I am having no luck.
I have a chubby PS2 with network adapter and Maxtor 160Gb HDD. I can load HDAdvance from the DVD, put games on the HDD and play them etc but what I really want is to be able to install some ELFs and boot from either the HDD or the memory card.
I have a Messiah 2 Pro chip so I can run CDRs but I don't know how to burn them to make this work.

Hmmmm,
To put the elf onto the memory card, you will need a og ps1 game to run it. Do you have a ps1 game?
And well If you had swap magic 3.6 there is a way to boot an elf file from the hdd (Which would have been hdloader), but cant help you with a modchip.

I got it working, I wasn't burning the disk in Mode 2, it works now but I have another question:
What is the nicest looking loader. I just want something that I can load ELFs from and looks nice so I can use it as my boot loader
