As expected an open source version of the PS3 Jailbreak has been released by french hackers Mathieulh and RichDevX. Find the source code here. Support for PS3Jailbreak’s backup manager which would technically allow piracy, has thus been disabled as this implementation targets at homebrew only.
The exploit is intended to be burnt to AT90USB and related microcontrollers like:
- AT90USB162
- AT90USB646
- AT90USB647
- AT90USB1286
- AT90USB1287
- ATMEGA32U4
PS3-Hacks.com now provide compiled binary files ready to be flashed to ATMEGA USB sticks. Tutorials and manuals for all John Does among us are likely to surface within the next few days.
Congratulations to Mathieulh and RichDevX.
this is awesome news. who needs backups? most of the ppl want a media-center based on the ps3. this is great news… I can already smell an XBMC for the PS3, supporting all kinds of codecs…
