Why test for -1 with the open?

There are many error codes possible I think, so I would at least test for < 0 and see if it still gets to the printf.

No, it's to reflash a devkit....which differs from a retail PSP. Besides that you'd need a Sony approved concept, and give Sony the idea that you can complete that concept in a way it won't hurt the image of the PSP experience, before you get the hardware, which is not included with the SDK, and bot...

There is however still no way to know whether UMD movie region coding will follow DVD region coding.
After all it's just a territory identifier to control the market, and they can decide on whatever regio coding they want for the PSP.

"the error codes wouldnt be considered illegal because they are more reference knowledge... It would be the same way as if you tested different things to learn how the errors work..." They were obtained illegally, and reverse engineering the meaning of some error codes is nearly impossible...

Yoshihiro, did you actually test this from MS?

I've had more luck loading executable code from UMD (that's to say, without it returning an error code) than from MS.

I think you forget one thing. The people that were serious about dev-ing made sure to get a 1.0 so couldn't care less about 1.5 being 'cracked'.

In fact, they might even regret it got cracked as it moved a whole new breed of coders in here....the ones asking what C is.

I'm surprised it says 980m available actually and not 976. Storage space is (deceptively) indeed calculated with a meg being 1000x1000 bytes. At least they do so for HD's so I assume MS to be the same. So a 32mb stick is 32.000.000 bytes which gives (divided by 1024x1024)=30.51 Mb. Likewise 512 mb s...
