Before you can run any ELF files from a USB stick, you need to first install fmcb 1.8 exploit to the memory card.

The PS2 by itself can't recognize the usb stick or any applications on it.

I would suggest to get another memory card

FMCB will install to memory card 1 or 2, did you try both slots.

You can burn USBAdvance to CD and boot that, or you can burn uLaunch.elf to CD or DVD and run it also.

When installing with a modchip, you need to use the fmcb 1.8b package - http://sksapps.com/exploit/freevast/Free_McBoot_1.8b.rar

Then make sure to have all your ELF files you need in the INSTALL folder.

And if you select the CD again in the browser, what happens then.

And just to remind or let you know, fmcb 1.8 will not work with most modchips.
You can use the modchip to install fmcb, but to run fmcb you will need to disable the chip.

Ok let me get this straight

You have already installed fmcb 1.8 to memory card - Yes or No

If yes, then the reason its going black is because you can't use the modchip and fmcb 1.8
Need to know exactly which "Magic" chip you have to know how to disable.

If its No, then you may have prepared the CD wrong. Recheck the tutorial.

So you can run Matrix Infinity manager then, if you have Matrix 1.93 firmware

You can actually install ELF files to memory card and run using the infinity manager if you wanted too.
http://sksapps.com/index.php?page=matrix/matrix_tut.html

But if you still want fmcb 1.8, then why not just burn a CD or DVD of uLe 4.38, then using "filebrowser" in uLe, browse to your USB drive and install fmcb 1.8

You can download a CD or DVD of uLe here - link

Just place your fmcb 1.8 files in the ROOT of the USB drive like below.

Not sure why you have corrupted file.Maybe try to copy it again.

Also when using matrix infinity and usbadvance, you will have to turn "macrovision fix" to 'off'

also here is a tutorial on uLe - http://www.console-exploits.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9646

According to the Matrix tutorial, you need to just paste the BOOT.ELF from either the CD or DVD to memory card, or use psupaste for the mc save.
Make sure for either method that it goes inside a folder named 'BOOT' with all uppercase letters.

You should then be able to launch uLe by hitting R1 on the PS2 as you boot up.

As for how to load games and use a usb drive , check this link

Or check the sticky section in the PS2 section of this forum for tutorials,

Using uLe you can launch the USBAdvance.elf right from the USB drive that you will have the games installed too.

Well do that then. Press Triangle + Circle. Change the setting.

USBExtreme does work off an External USB hdd though as I have done it many times on a 300GB hdd.

You could use the CD of uLe then, to Filebrowse the USB drive to load USBAdvance.elf

I am not sure why the uLe won't load from memory card as I can't see your setup.

Maybe download a newer version of the CD or DVD of uLe and then it will allow you too psupaste the mc save properly.

The ul.cfg file should show all games listed.

Use this new tool to copy games to your usb drive.

As for your BOOT.ELF not loading by pressing R1, I am not sure what the problem could be.
Try holding R1 before you turn PS2 on.
