Here is a excellent how to guide take from harryk from http://www.psp-hacks.com.

IINSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Using the USB connection, connect the PSP with the memory card inserted.

2. Format the memory stick. You can use either Windows Explorer to format the disk, or use the PSP ‘Format Memory Stick’ option

3. Extract the contents of the pandora.zip file to c:\pandora

4. Open a DOS prompt (Start -> Run -> CMD -> )

5. type ‘c:’ type ‘cd c:\pandora\mspformat’

6. type mspformat (in my case W) – ‘mspformat W’

7. Stop the USB connection, and unplug the memory stick (you can leave the cable connected). Seriously REMOVE THE STICK FROM THE PSP

8. Plug the memory stick back in and reconnect to Windows

9. Manually make the directory on the memory stick for PSP\GAME and PSP\GAME150 (GAME150 for custom firmwares like OE)

10. Copy the two directories for each application into either the GAME or GAME150 directory (for me it was GAME150)

11. Download the official 1.50 FW update from http://www.psp-hacks.com/download.php?id=4

12. Extract the update and store it on the root of the MS, named UPDATE.PBP

13. Stop the USB connection and go to the application ‘Pandora’s Battery Firm. Installer’ – this only takes a few moments.

14. ONCE COMPLETED DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP – REMOVE THE MS FROM THE PSP AND POWER THE UNIT DOWN RE-INSERT THE MS AND POWER THE SYSTEM BACK ON

15. Once completed, start the USB connection to the Windows PC.

16. Copy the file msipl.bin from the MS to c:\pandora\msinst

17. from a DOS prompt (referenced above) do the following

18. type ‘cd c:\pandora\msinst’

19. type ‘msinst W msipl.bin’

20. ONCE COMPLETED DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP – REMOVE THE MS FROM THE PSP AND POWER THE UNIT DOWN RE-INSERT THE MS AND POWER THE SYSTEM BACK ON

21. Now, browse over to the MS under games, and run the application ‘Pandora’s Battery Creator’ – I recommend backing up the eeprom of the battery just in case (it’s 1K , you’ve got plenty of space). The steps should be pretty obvious at this point, if you decide to backup the eeprom, you’ll have to re-enter the battery program to update the battery firmware.

22. ONCE COMPLETED DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP – REMOVE THE MS FROM THE PSP AND POWER THE UNIT DOWN RE-INSERT THE MS AND ALSO REMOVE AND RE-INSERT THE (NOW MODDED) BATTERY. POWER THE SYSTEM BACK ON

23. Congratulation, you are now in posession of a "Magic Memory Stick" and a "JigKick Battery".

In order for the system to actually work, POWER THE SYSTEM COMPLETELY OFF and unplug the battery and MS, plug them back in, and power on, voila you'll see the restore screen.

Shortly after I posted this thread a better thread was begun that has many users actively involved and has a Easy Installer for this hack. Although I could help you the could do a better job at it. Click here to go to the new/better thread.
