This is an Free Memory Card Boot (FMCB) installer. It was previously known as the Unofficial FMCB v1.8C installer. No part of it was directly re-used from FMCB v1.7 itself, but parts of it were based or referenced from the code of FMCB v1.7.

The files in the fmcb-install folder are from Jimmikaelkael's PS3MCA project. Of course, I didn't include the questionable files which Sony claimed as a breach of their copyright.

Since FMCB v1.9 was born, the FMCB installer has been used for installing FMCB.

WARNING: I removed the file: LAUNCHELF.CNF inside the BOOT folder since it causes issues -- Click Here for more info. So if you download the above version anywhere else, you will have that issue, until you remove that file!

Message from: Jay-Jay

TIP: those that use modchips, and have trouble using FMCB v1.966, please download below (from the OLDER VERSIONS section) any of the following two FMCB Installs for modchips:

FMCB v1.965 Install (2018-12-08) with USB-2019-01-14 Drivers) for modchips

FMCB v1.953 Install (2016-12-16) with USB-2019-01-14 Drivers) for modchips

These should be compatible with your modchipped console.

OLDER GUIDE:

► Show Spoiler

Download the archive linked to in the downloads section

Extract the contents into a USB Mass Storage device (e.g. USB thumb drive, HDD). It should look like this at the root of your USB HDD (flashdrive):

Complete FMCB/FHDB Installation files/folders.

TIP: make sure to copy all those files and folders, since when you don't, the installaer may not run.

Launch the FMCBInstaller.elf installer with uLaunchELF. -- For those new to FMCB, see this guide to learn how to go about doing that.

NOTE: Click Here to see the list of PS2 consoles that can install FMCB/FHDB.

NOTE 2: If your console has a modchip installed, then you really don't need to install FMCB, since that's like having two mod-hacks running at the same time. More info on this discussion can be found here. TIP: What you should do is make your modchip's DEV1 launch uLE and then install a custom skin for uLE so you can then have like a custom desktop to run all your favorite hombrew apps (like OPL, SMS, and etc.) -- More details here in this tutorial guide: Click Here.

FMCB SETTINGS

Existing FMCB CFG found!

(Do you want to keep it?)

No matter the installation method you choose above and if you don't Format your MC, you will get this message.

Select YES if you want to keep your old PS2 Browser settings.

Select NO if you want to overwrite your old settings.

NOTE: if you select NO , you will have to rebuild your PS2 Browser links from scratch. So if you are updating your FMCB version to a new version, then select YES during this this step.

NOTE 2: you will not get this message if you are installing FMCB for the first time on this Memory Card or you Formatted the Memory Card before you ran the Installation.

FAQS:

Q: I selected YES to keep the FMCB CNF file. But when I updated FMCB, my PS2 Browser still displays that I have my old version installed? What happened?

A: Okay, this is easy to fix. -- Go here and see this guide: Click Here.

As of 2014/06/29, FMCB v1.8C will no longer be circulated from here as the FMCB v1.9 appears to have achieved proven stability.​

Changelogs for FMCB/FHDB

Changelog for v1.966 (as of 2019/04/13)):

Added system shutdown function. The corresponding special menu item is "POWEROFF".

Renamed "Reload Configuration" to "Restart System".

Updated USBHDFSD & HDD modules to reduce wear on some 2.5" HDDs (USB and the PS2 HDD) when the PS2 is shut down. The User should use the shutdown function to shut down these devices properly.

Updated USBHDFSD to fix the performance problem from 2014.

(FHDB) Recompiled FSCK with new HDD modules.

Recovery mode will now once again be entered as long as mass:/RESCUE.ELF is found. The START+R1 combo can still be used to force it (FMCB/FHDB will make an infinite number of attempts to boot it).

NEW 2019/01/14 - (FHDB) Added Japanese translation for FSCK. Special thanks to Oga.

NEW 2019/01/14 - Updated USBHDFSD to fix the bug causing files to be unable to be replaced properly.

NEW 2019/04/13 - (FSCK) Replaced Japanese font with NotoSansJP-Bold, to reduce space wastage.

Changelog for the installer

Changelog for v0.987 (as of 2019/04/13):

Replaced Japanese font with NotoSansJP-Bold, to reduce space wastage.

Cleaned up source code in SECRMAN to be more readable and better representations of the original.

FMCB installation folders are now marked as non-transferrable in the browser.

Known issues (installer)

Known bugs:

None

Known limitations:

Some USB devices (i.e. Kingston) are known to be incompatible with PlayStation 2 homebrew software. To avoid a loss of data, please do not use them to store dumps from your memory cards.

Please refer to README.txt for the limitations for FMCB/FHDB.

Additional notes​

I've spent slightly over a hundred hours working on this, and I hope that it works well.... but of course, anything could go wrong - so I have provided a memory card dumping and restoration facility within the installer.

A dump of a memory card in SLOT 1 will get saved as mc0.bin, and a dump of a card in SLOT 2 will get saved as mc1.bin.

The file will be saved to the directory where the main executable of this installer resides in.

Caution! You can only make one dump of a card from each port. Making additional dumps will overwrite the previous dump.

(I seriously don't know what's wrong with those damaged cards... they were hardly used and now they cannot be detected at all).

Supported installation media:

USB devices only

Warnings against potential pitfalls​

!!! WARNING !!!

If you make a multi-install, do not delete any of the B*EXEC-SYSTEM folders or any of the OSD*.elf files inside them! -- Doing so might result in SEVERE data loss. Do not delete uninstall.dat from the SYS-CONF folder either, or you will probably be stuck with the multi-install files forever.

Lastly, read the included README file for more details.

FMCB v1.9 Series FAQS:

Source | Mirror

► Show Spoiler

This Q&A section will be slowly updated over time.

Last updated: 08/6/2018

General Questions

What is FMCB?

Free Memory Card Boot (FMCB) is a homebrew software which is designed to setup your PlayStation 2 console and provide you with a means of launching homebrew software, without the need for any extra hardware, modifications to your console or dangerous tricks like the legendary swap trick.

FMCB was originally developed by Neme and Jimmikaelkael, but they have been kind enough to provide me with access to its source code, for me to make some improvements to it.

What is FHDB?

Free Harddisk Drive Boot (FHDB) is basically FMCB that gets installed onto the PlayStation 2 console's HDD unit. It does everything like FMCB does, but is meant to be used with the Sony HDDOSD (Browser update v2.00).

Does FMCB/FHDB support my console?

All PlayStation 2 consoles but the late models should be supported, although FHDB can only be used on consoles that can have a HDD connected to them (SCPH-10000 to SCPH-55000 series).

The unsupported late PlayStation 2 console models start from the SCPH-90000, manufactured starting in the 3rd quarter of year 2008 (datecode 8C). They are usually R-chassis models. They have boot ROM v2.30 or newer, and will never support FMCB.

However, not all R-chassis and/or consoles with datecode 8C cannot work with FMCB. To know for sure, the boot ROM must be dumped.

What is the "OSD"? What's the "HDD OSD"? What's the boot ROM?

The "OSD" is the PlayStation 2 browser, the user-interface which you see when you first switch on the console without a game inserted.

The "HDD OSD" is also known as the "Browser update v2.00", which adds support for the HDD unit. Only supported by fat PlayStation 2 consoles and was only officially released in territories which received the HDD unit.

As for the boot ROM, it refers to the chip on the console which contains the OSD (Aka the "BIOS"). Sony calls it the boot ROM, and it makes sense because it doesn't really provide basic input/output like the term BIOS describes.

You aren't one of the original authors of FMCB. What happened to them?

That's true. Jimmikaelkael has been busy with life for quite a long while, and I had a number of ideas that I wanted to try out.

He gave me permission to work on FMCB, starting from February 2013.

Will FMCB/FHDB allow me to play imported games?

No. It's a hardware limitation, which cannot and won't be circumvented by FMCB alone.

Will FMCB/FHDB allow me to play burned/backed-up/pirated games?

No. It's a hardware limitation, which cannot and won't be circumvented by FMCB alone.

Does FMCB/FHDB support the late PlayStation 2 consoles (SCPH-90000 series, from the 3rd quarter of 2008 and later)?

No, since Sony had removed update support from these consoles. It is not possible to re-add that functionality as the PlayStation 2 uses Read-only memory (ROM).

FMCB takes 8 seconds to boot on my PlayStation 2 console! How can I reduce that?

For some reason, USB support causes the console to take quite a while more to boot up. This is especially bad on fat PlayStation 2 consoles.

Other than leaving a USB device connected, you may opt to delete mc:/SYS-CONF/USBD.IRX and mc:/SYS-CONF/USBHDFSD.IRX with uLaunchELF. However, you'll lose support for the rescue function (Allows FMCB to boot mass:/RESCUE.ELF for the user to correct configuration errors with an external program) if the USB modules are deleted.

Does FHDB support non-Sony Harddisk Drives?

Yes! However, whether the HDD OSD supports non-Sony disks or not depends on whether it was modified for that.

What is the maximum size of a HDD which FHDB supports?

Disks up to 2TB are supported by FHDB. However, the maximum size of the supported disk depends on what modifications were made to the HDD OSD. If its ATAD module was not replaced, it probably supports only up to 137GB.

Where can I get a copy of the HDD OSD?

You will have to buy/borrow a copy of the utility disc that fits your console's region. The disc cannot be copied because it's just like every other PlayStation 2 game disc out there.

If your PlayStation 2 console isn't a Japanese (SCPH-XXX00) or American unit (SCPH-XXX01), you'll have to get a hacked/modified copy.

Where can I get a copy of the HDD OSD for my non-Sony HDD?

This isn't part of this project and so I don't care where you get one from. It's not entirely legal to do so anyway, since it's copyrighted.

I see weird icons in the hacked OSD! Why does that happen?

The HDD OSD and ROM OSDs have a different icon map. This is why CNFs shouldn't be just copied over (FMCB CNF for FHDB, or vice-versa) or resaved on a different device (HDD to memory card, or vice-versa).

I see weird text in the hacked OSD of my SCPH-10000/SCPH-15000 when I use FMCB! Why does that happen?

These early consoles have an OSD in their boot ROMs that doesn't support the text formatting syntax which all newer OSDs support.

You can edit FREEMCB.CNF to use ASCII instead of the special PS2 characters.

FMCB v1.9 Series TROUBLESHOOTING:

Source | Mirror

► Show Spoiler

This new version of FMCB/FHDB doesn't seem to work on my console. Why, and what should I do?

If it doesn't work right and you're sure that it's not your fault, please report the fault on the FMCB release thread in PSX-scene or sent me an e-mail message.

I installed the HDD OSD, but FHDB switches off my HDD unit and I can't see the HDD from the browser. Why does that happen?

It means that FHDB couldn't locate a HDD OSD installation. You're probably using a heavily-hacked copy that doesn't have its files stored in the original locations.

I have the HDD OSD and FHDB installed properly, but I get a black screen after the "Sony Computer Entertainment" screen. Why?

To aid troubleshooting this symptom, I've released a diagnostic tool for identifying potential problems with the HDD unit: HDDChecker

All checks must pass, for the disk to be suitable for running FHDB. This includes the S.M.A.R.T. status. Disks that fail the S.M.A.R.T. test are about to fail, and should be replaced.

If the partition bad sector check fails, it means that your disk has been marked as having bad sectors by a filesystem driver. Using WinHIIP's scan and repair function should solve that, assuming that the bad sector(s) was remapped by the drive successfully.

Alternatively, a format with WinHIIP or uLaunchELF should solve it too, at the expense of all unbacked-up data.

The legacy MBRChecker tool can be found here, if required: http://www.mediafire.com/?fm0005h3jz9gbzg

Updated USBHDFSD, for better USB device performance

Updated HDD modules.

Updated to build with the latest PS2SDK, for reliability.

Replaced DVD player booting code, to give the Sony-like behaviour. For compatibility with all DVD players and projects.

Changelog for the installer v0.981

UI rework.

Updated USBHDFSD module for performance.

Updated translation template.

Note: there were a lot of changes made, code-wise. Some changes were even lost in time.

UPDATE 2:

Both FMCB/FHDB and the FMCB/FHDB Installer has been updated (again within 2 days apart!) -- see changelogs below for more details.

Go to first post above to download the latest version!

NOTE: LaunchELF has been updated to use the corrected USBHDFSD and PFS modules as well.

USBHDFSD had issues with writing correctly. Since external homebrew software may use the USBHDFSD module that FMCB/FHDB provides, I have made a new package.

LaunchELF also has its own copies of USBHDFSD and PFS, which have been updated as well.

UPDATE:

Thanks to our esteemed forum member: antonioks, he has just informed us that the developer has recently provided a quick update to fix a minor issue that arose in the previous update -- see changelog below for more details.

Go to first post above to download the latest version!

Installer Update v0.982

Changelog:

Reverted change from v0.98 - the IOP will no longer be reboot between the signing of each file.

Quote by the Developer: SP193 - Source | Mirror

While I am all for keeping the modules free of unofficial code, it appears that rebooting the IOP between the signing of each file increases the odds of an "Installation failed" happening.

Such a vague message is printed when an unrecognized error code is encountered. At that point, it does seem like some part of the installer has entered an undefined state, since it is impossible to make another installation after that. I have no wish to deal with such randomly-occuring problems.

Hence there is less reason to keep the official workaround for supporting both CEX and DEX consoles, in favour of the simpler workaround of getting secrman_special itself to adapt to the DEX. This was done previously.

NOTE: no change to FMCB/FHDB was made. You do not have to download the new package, if you had no problems installing FMCB.

UPDATE:

The FMCB/FHDB has been updated -- see changelogs below for more details.

Go to first post above to download the latest version!

Changelog for v1.962:

Fixed inability to boot DVDs from the browser, by re-addeding the accidentally deleted cleanup code.

Added a call to deinitialize libpad to the FMCB Configurator, for stability after exiting.

Fixed play history being updated twice, when a DVD Video disc is played.

Source | Mirror

Also because I must have accidentally hit the "keep both files button", the previous update did not get overwritten. So there is now probably some confusion over the version number. This shall become the new release, which will hopefully be the last one...

As for how the glitch came about: I changed the DVD Player selection code for v1.96. So while trying to get it to work, I commented out the code that deinitializes the RPC services... so libcdvd was (silently) failing because its semaphores were deleted by the EE kernel, but it couldn't be initialized because it thinks it already was initialized. So the lesson here, is as some old advice goes - there is a risk involved when we comment out code while debugging.

Go to first post above to download the latest version!

Changelog for v1.962:

Fixed inability to boot DVDs from the browser, by re-addeding the accidentally deleted cleanup code.

Added a call to deinitialize libpad to the FMCB Configurator, for stability after exiting.

Fixed play history being updated twice, when a DVD Video disc is played.

NEW - Updated OSD init code (fix for the mix-up on 06/23). Might not really result in any real benefits though.

Changelog for installer v0.983:

Added option to format the HDD unit, if not formatted.

Updated translation template.

Rebuilt to have the fixed PFS driver.

Updated FSCK to v0.961 - fixed checking of PFS partitions.

Updated LaunchELF.

Corrected logic error in UI that prevented FHDB from being installed.

Updated FSCK, to also correct the same logic error within it.

Updated LaunchELF, to fix the display mode setting problem and the inability to reliably boot ELFs.

NEW - Updated LaunchELF to fix booting of old software and to enable renaming for supported devices.

NEW : new changes to the current version.

Source | Mirror

This update is mainly to replace the previous package, which had a LaunchELF build that had issues with launching some (older) homebrew software.

The replacement LaunchELF build also has the rename operation enabled for all supported devices (memory card, USB mass storage device and the HDD unit).

For those of you who have no need to install/update FMCB/FHDB, you can simply grab the new wLaunchELF from here: wLaunchELF Releases by SP193 and AKuHAK

I have attempted to fix the age-old flaw within USBHDFSD that might be responsible for the rare occurrence of filesystem corruption, whenever new files are added (or if files are renamed).
