I read somewhere on a forum that you could force ps2link to load an ELF into different parts of memory (pass an argument maybe?).
ex: Highmemory, default, etc. I always thought the start address was specified in the header of the ELF. If ps2link can do this, how? thanks

Check the makefile for PS2Link, you can pass an argument to the linker, which sets the base address for the ELF.

Ahh i see the args... One last thing though. How can I connect to the SVN with a FTP client such as filezilla?

Do I need a username and password?
Port 21?
connect to: svn.ps2dev.org

thanks for your help

You connect to SVN with an SVN client.
I think it supports anonymous login.

With a subversion client installed, like 'svn':

svn export svn://svn.ps2dev.org/ps2/trunk/ps2client

You can also browse the repositories at:

http://svn.ps2dev.org

Thanks. I got tired of having to copy and paste the text. It caused programs not to compile successfully due to text formatting errors and such. I had to manually edit them.

Oh ya.... I have a question about Sioshell (EE Serial App.) After executing the elf and typing exec rom0:OSDSYS in my terminal app it returns me to the ps2 OS. I can then load any software (homebrew , retail ps1 and ps2 games, etc.) I was curious and wanted to see if it would load a burned retail game that I own. But it doesnt. I load sioshell and then the exploit. I launch cogswap and attempt to boot the burned game (put in TOC, press O, swap etc.) I can hear the disc load but I get a solid black screen. No matter what game. It swaps fine if sioshell isnt running in memory. Any ideas?

Yeah, buy the original game. We don't tolerate piracy here.

Im not pirating. I made a burned copy of my game that i haved owned since the day it came out. Socom II. I was jus wondering why sioshell would lock up the system when you attempt to boot a burned game rather than a retail game.

Because the game itself checks to see if the disc is a valid PS2 disc. It's not - it's a burned disc.

Just to comment on this. On these forums, anything that could be used for piracy is off limits (ie: booting "backups", bypassing cdvd security, hdloader, cog swap, etc).
