ookay so
-I've gone back on Windows and downloaded GhostBSD 20.08.04 iso using VM
-I've added the ps4 HDD so it can be recognised from GhostBDS by going to VirtualBox's settings>usb>"plus icon on the right">Generic External[XXX]
-I launched GhostBSD, listed the disk using the command I saw in...
Nice I will try your commands with the PS4 hdd right now with VM and GhostBSD 20.08.04
Sorry if this is a stupid question but, the hdd (the user partition) is encrypted with eap key, and by the commands it seems it tries to mount the normal way as of it is not encrypted. Do I have to do...
Sorry for the late response (I didn’t see the notification I’m still a noob here >.<)
On Linux I tried unmounting and mounting again but no result, I also tried mounting when already mounted just in case and it says device busy or that it is already mounted... If you meant with GhostBSD I...
Don’t worry about disk image I can send it for research purpose without any problem (I have more than 1 PS4 ^^) so if you find the PS3 hdd troublesome let me know :)
So all is left is to keep trying to manually enable ufs rw by recompiling kernel I guess...
I’ll leave you my configuration/kernel...
I would have gone as far as shipping you my hdd with its eap key so good thing ps3 hdd also has read-write problem ;)
One question, you talked about GhostBSD having UFS2 rw support... where is the problem with it? Do you suggest installing it? Will I be able to write when I mount the hdd being a...
I don’t think I understood what command to run to list kernel modules :/
later today I will also try to mount the PS3 hdd after loading the kernel to see if I get the same result...
I’ve done all your steps and used @gmipf ’s ufs.ko
It mounted without giving me the warning “mouted read-only” which is a very good sign.
But I still can’t paste or drag&drop files in it unfortunately :(
Any reasons why?
By the way, in the hdd properties/permissions it says this:
And thank...
Okay I’ve booted Ubuntu 19.10 cinnamon remix from the usb using Rufus and downloaded gmipf’s ufs.ko
I’ve tried your commands but something appears to be wrong :/
EDIT: nevermind, the problem was that I had to turn off secureboot on the bios
Thank you for your reply
I will uninstall OpenSUSE real quick and start again.
So, I install back Ubuntu 20.04 lts (or do you suggest using latest Mint like you?)
Then I follow your steps:
I install the kernel (but which one and with which command?)
How do I boot into the newly installed...
I’ve also heard that OpenSUSE allows UFS rw from here: https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/532288-Only-the-openSUSE-mount-is-able-to-mount-UFS-partitions-read-write-mode-but-why
So yesterday I’ve installed it but the command sudo zypper install cryptmount didn’t work and I don’t know how...
I've read all the replies in the thread you linked and maybe it is better for me to use already compiled modules rather than messing with FreeBSD as I've only been using linux for a week so be patient with me :(
So in summary, I install Ubuntu 19.10, install the kernel that allows UFS2 rw with...
Seems like a clear step by step guide thanks. So after booting into Linux kernel 5.6.9 will I be able to write to ufs or do I have to configure it in a particular way? (Please keep everything user friendly as I don’t have any experience with kernel stuff)
