MrGatz85 & Cael's Open AsbestOS Loader

Ok after many days of hard work and get help from every where. The new Loader is out of Beta.
Has a new Name again, sorry. This time it does not require Hermes' Payload at all, you can still use it. You do require peek/poke in your payload though. And is Now $ony Free, thats right folks no more $ony SDK. it runs on PSL1GHT and ps3chain.

For some reason it does not work with Fat PS3s. i think its due that we are still on the old kernel. i will working hard to get it working with the new kernel asap. you are also required to be on firmware 3.41. other then that here is the README and link at the Bottom


To all that have donated thanks you have help me start to get my teeth fixed. i go back in two weeks for the doctors to look again. its free but the doctor is two hours away. so with funds tight, your donations help pay for gas and such. Thank yall from bottom of my heart.

And i also want to say thanks to Ceal for testing the shit out of this as fast i could pop out a new prototype she was there to test. thanks
here is the README


AsbestOS Open Loader README


== Introduction Requirements==
This a AsbestOS Linux bootloader that runs off of the PS3 Lv-2 exploit.
It is designed to boot on PS3 systems running System Software version 3.41,
though it could be adapted to earlier versions. Linux runs on the GameOS partition,
thus having the same access to hardware that GameOS has.
This code is experimental and is intended for those who have a 16KB USB dongle
and no possibility to launch asbestOS in other form.
does not require you to be using Hermes' 4vB payload!!!!
*It also requires you to be using Hermes' 4vB payload
this is a typeo fixed here in the readme to lazy to uploadagain
to compile is best to be using linux, as i have not tested on windows

== Building ==

The PS3DEV environment variable needs Setup

$ mkdir ~/ps3dev // I Find in my user drive i have no permison problems
$ mkdir ~/ps3dev
Add these to the end of you ~/.bashrc file

export PS3DEV=~/ps3dev
export PATH=$PATH:$PS3DEV/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$PS3DEV/ppu/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$PS3DEV/spu/bin
export PSL1GHT=~/pslight

$ git clone git://github.com/HACKERCHANNEL/ps3chain.git ~/ps3chain

$ git clone git://github.com/HACKERCHANNEL/PSL1GHT.git ~/PSl1GHT

Then Read the readme under both those drives and compile how they lay out.
rember we have already set the PS3DEV and PSL1GHT vars


== Usage ==

First compile AsbestOS Loader get a compatible USB exploit mechanism.
You should also connect your PS3 and PC to a network not the internet.
(they need to be in the same broadcast domain also)

P3
Do nothing but plug into your router
PC
there is where everyone seems to have the trubble.
i have created a easy setup guide for the NFS share.
Read HowToNFS.
if you cant do this becuase your in windows run Virtualbox
with your fav linux. bridge the network cards under VM setup.
and then continue with the Guide.


Transfer the AsbestOSHybridLoader.pkg (that you compiled )
to the root of a thumb drive
At this point if you have edit you own dtbImage.ps3.bin
(marcan's kernel image included under xdata)
Copy them to the root of you usb thumb drive.


Fire off the exploit device, turn on your PS3 using power followed by eject within 0.2 seconds .

Install the pkg AsbestOSHybribLoader.pkg.
OK now find the penguin and run the Program.
\
Ok the scary part the screen goes black.it....Wait for it....If you get anything at all, congratulations, Kernel is running.
At this point, if you have any issues, the problem should be fairly apparent from the messages (Kernel panic NFS not mounted).
If not then there could be a cupple things wrong. There has been reports that there is a issuse with SD tvs.
I can not comfirm because i do not own a tv.I happen to run mine to a Monitor with a HDMI > DVI cable.
There are also been reports of it not working on Phat PS3s. as im not sure about this (one friend told me it worked on his phat),


Once the PS3 is up and running and your NFS share.you should now have a Working AsbestOS.
to find out more about AsbestOS got to marcan's blog http://marcansoft.com/blog/
You Can Contact me at my blog http://margatz85.blogspot.com/


And i want to say thanks to Ceal,Marcan32,KaKaRoToKS,Hermes,ooPo,AerialX,Mathieulh,Aaron (the guy who started PSL1GHT)
and who ever i missed. with out any of yall i wont have been able to do what i do.
Thats have fun and use my toys the way i want

MrGatz85

== ToDo ==
spell check every thing (ROFL i cant spell sorry)
Keep up with the latest kernel and patchs.( We will have HDD support soon)

Same Loader New Ttile "AsbestOS Hybrid Loader beta 1.1" Updated Readme

There is a new name AsbestOS Hybrid Loader. two reasons To much other people's code, and it requires both the OPEN SDK and the Leaked SDK to compile all the way. It has been a long 4 days. i been working Hard to clean, fix-up the Makefiles, comment the code.
Just plan make it some what readable by someone else. OK i hate to repeat type every thing so here is the README and links are at the bottom. Hate to ask this.but I am a stay at home dad,not by choice no work in my small town. So if you like it, Use it often, or just want too Please Donate.

== Building ==

The PS3DEV environment variable needs Setup

$ sudo mkdir /usr/local/ps3dev

Add these to the end of you ~/.bashrc file

export PS3DEV=/usr/local/ps3dev
export PATH=$PATH:$PS3DEV/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$PS3DEV/ppu/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$PS3DEV/spu/bin


$ cd toolchain && ./buildit.sh ppu

You also need to setup CELL_SDK environment variable !!!
This build requires Both open adn leaked SDKs!!

With both of those set we can contintue.
Ok in the root of the AsbestOS Hybrid Loader run 'make'
this should compile the
AsbestOS bin,
AsbestOS Hybrid Loader pkg,
dbgcli (debug program for AsbestOS),
tftpgui ( small python app to loader kernal for this pkg Only setups for linux run the exe for windows)


== Usage ==

First compile AsbestOS Hybrid Loader get a compatible USB exploit mechanism.
You should also connect your PS3 and PC to a network not the internet.
(they need to be in the same broadcast domain also)

P3
Do nothing but plug into your router
PC Update: Fixed the Readme
there is where everyone seems to have the trubble.

You will also need to disable NAT on your router(we need our own DHCP server)
OK tftp here we need to setup the tftp server and DHCP server.
really all you need to do is setup your DHCP not sure how to do this easy
but google "DHCP server YOUR_OS" and find the easyest way to setup.
after that you need to go under the tools Dir find tftpgui_1_1 and
read the README for info on how to setup the tftp server
Once configured You now need to open a copy of
dtbimage.ps3.bin (Under PS3_GAME/USRDIR/ if you need a copy )in a HEX
editor. Search for the Text "HEX" just above there is the mount and ip
address you need to change to your servers info your.server.ip:/ps3root
Now you need to setup your NFS share
i have created a easy setup guide for the NFS share.
it will be located under the tools dir called HowToNFS.
if you cant do this becuase your in windows run Virtualbox
with your fav linux. bridge the network cards under VM setup.
and then continue with the Guide.


Transfer the AsbestOSHybridLoader.pkg (that you compiled )
to the root of a thumb drive
At this point if you have compiled you own dtbImage.ps3.bin
(marcan's kernel image source at http://git.marcansoft.com/)
and asbestos.bin(Hermes' Version of the stage2 source inculded),
Copy them to the root of you usb thumb drive.


Fire off the exploit device, turn on your PS3 using power followed by eject within 0.2 seconds .

Install the pkg AsbestOSHybribLoader.pkg. OK now find the penguin and run the Program.
First it checks and make sure you exploit payload is compatible with the program Yes (goes) No (quits)
It should now ask you a series of questions.
Do you Want to boot AsbestOS?Yes (goes) No (quits)
Do you Want to load your BINS from the USB?(if you say yes and there are now files defualt will load off HDD)
Do you Want to try Experimental sys8_memcpy replacment? Yes (goes) this replaces sys8_memcpy with a poke loop No (goes) uses sys8_memcpy
Rember that sys8_call is still being used, so you still need hermes 4vb!!(Replace with your own look in main for sys8_call)
Ok the scary part the screen goes black.it....Wait for it....If you get anything at all, congratulations, Kernel is running.
At this point, if you have any issues, the problem should be fairly apparent from the messages (Kernel panic NFS not mounted).
If not then there could be a cupple things wrong. There has been reports that there is a issuse with SD tvs.
I can not comfirm because i do not own a tv.I happen to run mine to a Monitor with a HDMI > DVI cable.
There are also been reports of it not working on Phat PS3s. as im not sure about this (one friend told me it worked on his phat),
There could be a posible problem on how you exploit is deliverd to the ps3. I dont know enough quite yet so who knows.
that is why im am releasing this as a beta.

Once the PS3 is up and running and your NFS share.you should now have a Working AsbestOS.
to find out more about AsbestOS got to marcan's blog http://marcansoft.com/blog/
You Can Contact me at my blog http://margatz85.blogspot.com/


And i want to say thanks to Marcan32,KaKaRoToKS,Hermes,ooPo,AerialX,Mathieulh, an who ever i missed.
with out any of yall i wont have been able to do what i do. Thats have fun and use my toys the way i want.

== ToDo ==
spell check every thing (ROFL i cant spell sorry)
write a how to for tftp
remove the need for Only hermes' payload (replace sys8_call )
remove the ned for leaked SDK
Keep up with the latest kernel and patchs.( We will have HDD support soon)


AsbestOS Hybrid Loader

AsbestOS Loader

OK im back again with one of my simmple apps. Im lazy and i like one button sulutions. i have created a new loader basede on hermes loader. its does every almost the same but you dont have to go through the extra step of putting the bins on the usb and opening any Game Manger.
i also added a check to make sure you are running a payload that will work.
and want to say sorry now to the ps3hax guys that made the image i used as a icon again i am lazy.

And please rember this is still a beta.
AsbestOS Loader
i will be releasing the code shortly as right now i need more time to clean it up.

Gatz

Update: Please use Hermes' payload or it wont work.
And if you have a error let leave a message on the blog,
how far did it get and when it froze
and rember its a beta

DVD ENABLER

Ok i given up on the RockUrJig project seems Other people where better suited for the own version (that works might i add) But recently i have started a new project I am calling it DVD ENABLER.
this will let you play Decrypted VOB files. Its simple and straight to the point, and easily able to reset the DVD drive.



1) You will need to dump your VOB files .
(I am working on Ubuntu with libdvdcss + vobcopy)
in ubuntu you will need to do the run the following commands

$ sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh

$ sudo apt-get install vobcopy

2) Now with vobcopy installed run this command

$ vobcopy ~/Videos/XXX/

replace XXX with the movies name.
3) Now you need to FTP those VOB files to

/dev/hdd0/DVDS/XXX/

replace XXX with the movies name.

for example Hitman unrated looks like this

/dev/hdd0/DVDS/Hitman/HITMAN_UNRATED1-1.vob

/dev/hdd0/DVDS/Hitman/HITMAN_UNRATED1-2.vob

/dev/hdd0/DVDS/Hitman/HITMAN_UNRATED1-3.vob

4)Now Install the DVD ENABLER package...(you should know how)

5)Now insert any DVD

5)Ok now run the the DVD ENABLER. it will ask you

Do you want to Enable the DVD ENABLER

Yes will enable it and No will disable it.
Running the program again and saying no will reset it.

6)Now under Videos you should see a data disc.
select the data disc and you movies folders should show up.
Navigate to the movie folder you want to play and play the first VOB file.


Later Versions I will try to impalement a Built in Copier and Manger.

Word of Warning This is For personal Backup only.
Ok i hope everyone enjoys this one. I know i will My Son destroys DVDs left and right.

And if you like it and use it on a reg bases drop me donation. every little bit helps





Download:DVDENABLER.pkg Requires 3.41 and PL3 Payload
Here this the source code for the BETA

RockUrJIG Bootloader

Ok yall i got some vids for you from k3rizz3k at ps3hax.
as i dont have the ability to get pics and vid he has donated this one for us.



the vid shows the sansa clip begin boot up and waiting for the PS3 to respond.


here is a another one




When i get more vids or pics i will let yall know.

RockUrJIG Glitch *FIXED*

Ok i have fixed the glitch. everything is back to normal now.
i also add a few more functions

jig_enable(Bool);
This enables and disables the jig with true or false
check_jig();
This one checks the status and returns true or false
jig_mode();
This one is called from the boot-loader to enable the
jig and also to check for connection of the usb

My code now starts with one call.

if(btn & BUTTON_SELECT && usb_detect() != USB_INSERTED)
jig_mode();

Witch Allows us to boot into the exploit while the PS3 is off,
and wait for a usb connection. Another thing this allowed me to
keep rockboxs Boot-loader USB MODE for recovery.
So now for recovery mode
Hold the center button and plugin the usb cable and turn on.
To boot RockUrJIG
Hold the center and turn on without the usb-cable plugged in.
OK have fun folks!!
