Partitioning HDD

Playstation 2 use PFS filesystem. You could use pfsshell on PC. pfsshell's author advises you to not use it as root.

# chown myuser /dev/sdb

$ pfsshell 
pfsshell for POSIX systems
https://github.com/uyjulian/pfsshell

This program uses pfs, apa, iomanX, 
code from ps2sdk (https://github.com/ps2dev/ps2sdk)

Type "help" for a list of commands.

install FHDB (Free HDBoot)

Alternatively you could simply use an image disc with dd ( as windows people use HDDGURU: HDD Raw Copy Tool) , for example FHDB image disc ( like https://www.ps2-home.com/forum/download/file.php?id=12450 ) , that way you can use homebrews too :

dd if=FHDB.img of=/dev/sdb status=progress

FHDB is slower than FMCB but you can use it to install FMCB.

Samba

works fine - example soon.

FTP transfer

  • PC side :

PS2 doesn't support TLS, use plain FTP. (tested with filezilla)

  • PS2 side :

Launch ps2net. You need to activate hdd (exploring it in uLaunchELF for example) before ps2net to share it.
