PSP 2.5/2.6 Kernel Access
« on: June 27, 2006, 09:13:22 pm »
New exploit found.  2.5/2.6 PSP's can now get into the system kernel, which means homebrew galore.  A lot of people think it's attack against the UP mod chip.  Wewt.

General Security?
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

It's not security.  It's a good thing.

In fact, if I could get giant radioactive yodling gorillas to shout it from the rooftops, I totally would.

Bumpage.

There is a testable 2.5/2.6 -> 1.5 downgrader, but it's more than a 50% chance of bricking, so I'm going to wait for a stable release, but I am close to getting the equivolent of my old PSP back ^^
