codebreaker and action replay provide game cheat capabilities. they also provide memory card file management capabilities. the file management is why people mentioned them. you need to manipulate the game saves (copy/paste) in order to do your modding.
the only hardware you really NEED is the old school PS2, a hard drive, the network adapter and a USB flash drive (that actually works with your ps2)
Was wondering if the custom Independence Exploit CD is a PS1 CD Game or a PS2 CD Game?
Cause I was wondering on how to boot the disk without Swap Magic, Codebreaker, Action Replay.....
and if its a PS1 CD Game then I can use PS1 technique by putting a legit PS1 then swapping it with the burned Independence Exploit CD and itll boot.

Thanks.
Its a PS2 exploit that uses PS1 drivers,so to install it you need to boot it like it was a PS2 backup.After you install the exploit you then plug in an original PS1 game to boot the memory card exploit.

That is not entirely true. you use a PS1 game to create the saved game, it boots up as a PS1 game because that is were you get the magic from. the Ps2 reads Ps1 games differently.It is in fact booting the PS1 driver which are not really drivers but a boot sector on the disk. The Fat Ps2s split the way it reads a game in to two parts, well more then that but these two parts are the only important ones, the Loading screen and the game play. In between the two is were the ps2 reads the memory cards and any information that you have saved for that particular game, at this point you can add your little peace of code, the Exploit. After booting the exploit you can run many different application and programs including Linux.
however for this exploit i will say you did specify the correct method just did not explain the way the exploit works.

the point was not to explain the details of how the exploit works. just how to boot the cd to start exploiting. once again, look into doing the FMCB exploit. it's much better now, and you dont have to worry about the details of how the exploit is done. just do it.
I completely understand that the point was not to tell him/her how the exploit works just how to do the exploit but i have been doing modding for around 4 years now and have worked on everything from a sega dream casts to xbox and ps2s. I don't think that people need to know how an exploit works to get it installed or working but i think that they should at least know the background of it and why it works so they have a better appreciation of the time it took to find the information and also to help when new systems come out. These kind of things are what keep the modding community going and i by no means completely understand how all of this works but i do understand the portions of the modding that i do and how it works. I helped to make home brewed apps for the xbox and i have made a few configurations for Ps2 programs.
As of now im making a 5 disk changer for the original xbox as well as making everything from the SMS media center to the superNintendo emulator to run off of the HD of a PS2. I don't think these are a prevalent as the mods them selves but they are fun projects.
