Misc[edit source]

  • Serial number folder type name (on UTC) on /dev_hdd0/game/ :

_INST_YYYYMMDDHHMMSSSSSSSSSS (failure can also create regular folder id)

_GDATA_YYYYMMDDHHMMSSSSSSSSSS

_DEL_YYYYMMDDHHMMSSSSSSSSSS/USRDIR/JITGenerated (empty folder tree structure created after a error when trying to erase a content from "game data"). The folder "JITGenerated" was the responsible of the problem, not posible to erase from XMB (with triangle over the "corrupted data icon" replying with an "not possible to access HDD") neither from FTP (replying with an error "not posible to display folder contents")... after several "restore filesystem" and "rebuild database" the corrupted icon was moved out of "game data" and his timestamp changed (the YYYYMMDDHHMMSSSSSSSSSS in the main folder name was updated to an actual timestamp so it was "regenerated"). The only way to erase it is with a filemanager running in PS3 (is not possible to erase the "corrupted data" icon in an official firmware until you format the HDD)
