1. Unzip gshi_ps2sdk.7z, which is a prebuilt binary version of ps2sdk, the reverse-engineered open-source PS2 SDK. Be warned, this zip contains many thousands of files because it includes a preinstallation of msys and the needed tools for building projects with ps2sdk. Follow the instructions in the expanded .7z for installation of ps2sdk.\

Note: This version of ps2sdk has been patched in order to be capable of building uLaunchELF (uLE), but the patches were probably intended for a different version of uLE. I had to customize a specific version of uLE (v4.40h) that was compatible with PCSX2, which will cause a problem in step 2.\

2. On the msys command prompt, switch to the uLaunchELF/ directory to build my slightly-customized version of the open-source boot loader. (The changes I made to the uLE source files are marked with "Iritscen:" comments.)\
|
| 19 |
A. Execute "make". The build process will fail halfway through, probably due to the issue explained in the note above. You should receive a build error originating from the uLaunchELF/hdl_info/ directory.\
|
| 20 |
B. Open hdl_info/Makefile for editing. As my comment in the file indicates, you need to remove the "-c" option from IOP_CFLAGS. Save the file.\
|
| 21 |
C. Execute "make" again from the uLaunchELF/ directory. The build should complete, producing a BOOT.ELF in this directory.\
|
| 22 |
\
|
| 23 |
Note: To build uLE in the future, you will need to restore the hdl_info Makefile's "-c" option and then go through steps 2A\'96C again.\
|
| 24 |
\
|
| 25 |
3. Use this BOOT.ELF binary along with the other files supplied in the directory above source/ to supply launch arguments to your PS2 game in PCSX2 using the steps in Instructions.rtf.} |
