Hey,

First off, let me say I have a PS2 slim I'd like to mod. I don't have a mod chip and would rather spend nothing to do this, so I was doing some research and I think the best way was using Free McBoot + cogswap to do it. Yet...now all this information and guides have confused me lol

How would I go about doing all of this? I know I have to get cogsawp onto a memory card? Using a PSX game? I just don't know how to get cogswap onto the memory card through the PSX game to begin the install of Free McBoot (I think...)

Thanks for any help you can lend me.

The PS1 game trick doesn't work on slims ! Borrow a Swap Magic or Codebreaker or some other boot disc that can get you on the pen-drive to launch the installer.Or, find someone with a modded console to help you install.

Yeah, like flowrent said, cogswap only works on the old "fat" PS2s.

Best bet is to just cough up the money for swapmagic. It's the easiest way to go about playing backups and installing apps.
