== Objdump ==

If you, for whatever reason, need to disassemble non-x86 binary files, you usually look out for a disassembler. If there's nothing free available for your platform (e.g.: ARM) one of the few solutions may be buying something like IDA Pro.

But wait, if you only need to "analyze" a small portion (boot-sector, single routine, ...) and someone already ported GNUs GCC and bintools to your platform, using OBJDUMP may do the trick...

If "raw.bin" is your binary file, just typing
<pre>  objdump -d raw.bin
  objdump: raw.bin: File format not recognized</pre>

will not work. Objdump needs a file system object or file.

Just do it like this:
<pre>  # create an empty file
  touch empty.c

  # compile this empty file
  gcc -c -o empty.o empty.c

  # add binary as a raw section
  objcopy --add-section raw=raw.bin empty.o
	
  # remove ".comment" section to join
  objcopy -R .comment empty.o

  # now run objdump on it
  objdump -d empty.o</pre>

== Several handy scripts ==
Most of the scripts are using graf's ps3dm-utils, so make sure you have them in your /bin directory.
Also make sure you are using graf's kernel (graf_chokolo kernel 2.6.39).

===panic1.sh===
This script will panic lv1 and get you back to petitboot, without exiting to GameOS.
 ps3hvc_hvcall /dev/ps3hvc panic 1

===usb_dongle_auth.sh===
This script will get you into Factory/Service mode, without using dongle:
 echo Generating a challenge
 ps3dm_usb_dongle_auth /dev/ps3dmproxy gen_challenge
 echo Generating a response '(0xAAAA)'
 ps3dm_usb_dongle_auth /dev/ps3dmproxy gen_resp 0xAAAA
 echo Verifying response '(0xAAAA)'
 ps3dm_usb_dongle_auth /dev/ps3dmproxy verify_resp 0xAAAA
 echo Checking if 'Product Mode is enabled
 The returned value shouldn't be 0xff
 ps3dm_um /dev/ps3dmproxy read_eprom 0x48C07

===dump_EID0.sh===
This script will dump your EID0.
 echo Dumping EID0
 ps3dm_iim /dev/ps3dmproxy get_data 0x0 > EID0.bin

===dump_EID4.sh===
This script will dump your EID4.
 echo Dumping EID4
 ps3dm_iim /dev/ps3dmproxy get_data 0x4 > EID4.bin

===get_EID0_size.sh===
This script will get the size of your EID0.
 echo EID0 size:
 ps3dm_iim /dev/ps3dmproxy get_data_size 0x0

===get_EID4_size.sh===
This script will get the size of your EID4.
 echo EID4 size:
 ps3dm_iim /dev/ps3dmproxy get_data_size 0x4

===get_metldr_size.sh===
This script will get the size of metldr.
 echo metldr size:
 ps3dm_iim /dev/ps3dmproxy get_data_size 0x1000

===nor_dump.sh===
 echo Dumping nor
 dd if=/dev/ps3nflasha of=nor.bin

===dump_ram.sh===
This script will dump your ram.
 echo Dumping ram
 dd if=/dev/ps3ram of=ps3ram.bin

===dump_vram.sh===
This script will dump your vram.
 echo Dumping vram
 dd if=/dev/ps3vram of=ps3vram.bin



== Payloader3 ==
http://git.dashhacks.com/payloader3/payloader3/trees/master (down)

http://gotbrew.org/payloader3.tar.gz / [http://www.multiupload.com/DM8KLHX2SS payloader3.tar.gz (55.55 MB)]

===Howto===	
# Set firmware version in Makefile
# Compile with "./build.sh"
# Copy pkg file to usb stick
# Install pkg on PS3

===Notes===
# Loading ps3load after the payload will execute the appropriate ps3load.self, after your self exits you will be returned to the XMB.
# Loading 'ethdebug' will load ArielX's Kammy self, after it executes you will be returned to the XMB.
# Loading 'ethdebug/ps3load' will load ethdebug, then ps3load.

===Limitations===
* ps3load will '''not''' work on 3.50/3.55 (¨sysProcessExitSpawn2¨ won't work proper), use 3.41 instead.
** Note: latest version seem to address/fix the issues seen on 3.50/3.55
