Use this to run the FreeMCBoot installer ( ) by copying the installer from you computer onto your USB drive, and plugging the USB drive into the PS2.

Select UlaunchELF (wLE 4.43a), which is basically like a very simple-looking (but powerful) Finder on a Mac, or Windows Explorer on Windows platforms.
When you boot the PS2, it should eventually load up the PS2 menu.(Make sure that the PS2 is unplugged whenever installing or removing the HDD or you could very well blow a fuse!) Connect the HDD to the PS2 via the network adapter.

There are plenty of alternatives, so feel free to use your favorite. Windows users can use HDD Raw Copy ( ) or Win32 Disk Imager ( ).

Mac and Linux users can copy the image file to their HDD using the dd command. The boot image can be found in the first post of this thread: The idea is to write a boot image to the HDD so that we can run custom code. Once you have the necessary hardware, it is a fairly simple process.
In theory, you can use any IDE adapter that fits the network adapter, and any storage device that your IDE adapter handles. I personally use: which has support for both SATA and PATA and runs on the faster USB3 ports (backward compatible with USB2). If you stick with PATA drives, then chances are you will need some sort of USB adapter. You can alternately modify your network adapter to use SATA hard drives with. If you own a fat PS2, then you actually can create your own FMCB memory card without having to do any of the disk swapping nonsense. The process below is for those who DO NOT already have access to Free MC Boot, but DO have a PS2 with Network Adapter and HDD. I am of the opinion buying one from ebay is better than the time/cost it takes to send away a memory card and have it freely modified with FMCB. Yes, I am aware that many users are kind enough to provide a free service for installing FMCB.

For owners of the fat PS2 consoles, you can also soft mod your PS2 to use your HDD (and even use Free HD Boot - the HDD version of Free MC Boot).

Once you have such a memory card, you can create new ones or update it to the most recent version (I always have one as a backup that I have stored away safely). The cost of such a memory card is around $10 (USD) on ebay. Also, if this belongs in Modern gaming or something, my apologies and hopefully it'll get moved.Updated for 2019 - everything still remains the same, but added a few more details.įor any PS2 (slim or fat) with model number less than 9xxx, the simplest method is to obtain a memory card with Free MC Boot installed. I hope it's not against forum policy to ask questions like this, I did a search and found similar threads about modding, so, I don't think it is.Īnyway, if anyone has any help whatsoever, please PM me or respond in the thread. (Plus I think you need an older model to use the external hard drive). Oh, and ideally I'd like one of the older models because I don't like the design of the slim ones. I also read that instead of using a mod chip there are steps you can take to play games off of an external hard drive instead of with a disc-that's the most appealing option for me because I then wouldn't have to worry about wearing down the lens.Īt this point I'm willing to buy a pre-modded PS2, or send one to get modded, it doesn't matter. Every thread I find talking about websites on google is about 2 years old, and most of the links are dead or the sellers don't seem reputable. The problem is I can't solder it myself, and I have no idea where to find someone who can.
So, I started looking in to getting a mod chip for my PS2. This isn't a huge deal with my PSone games as I just burn them onto my computer and use an emulator, however, I don't have that option with the PS2. The problem is that I want to play them as well. I'm really anal about the discs getting scratched up, because I want them around as long as possible. As you can see from my join date and number of posts, I'm kind of a lurker around here.Īnyway, I'm a huge collector of PS and PS2 games.
