Install DEBUG FW on on Retail PS3

After a long time it finally seems that there might be a break through for the PS3 hacking scene. XVISTAMAN2005, has found a way to partially install a debug PS3 firmware on a retail PS3. Partially meaning that he has found a way to get a retail PS3 into debug mode, but currently the options are non functional.

So what is amazing about this? This gives PS3 hackers a huge new area to work with that was not previously available before, plus not to mention that devs already had a working ISO loader running on a full debug console (this method currently gives us a partial-debug console).

Interesting.... Have the same results been gotten for installing on a 20/40/60/80GB console? Since there's a slight hw difference in each one, I wonder if that has anything to do with it...

Deffinatly sounds interesting, some nice homebrew apps on the PS3 would go down really nice, as its such a powerfull console some sort of media center would be excellent.

I hope this comes through i think homebrew could be great on the PS3.
