PS3 Best way forward with OFW 4.80 & Slim CECH-2004B

[dzsimbo]

Hey Guys,

I've been trying to figure out what would be the best way to jailbreak my PS3 Slim.
Would it be better to update to newest OFW (4.86) or install the newest HEN over the 4.80 OFW?

Thanks

Either way the easiest route is with the ps3 toolset available from the main page, or ps3xploit website.
If you can handle cfw, that's usually the best, otherwise, hen is available.

Edit: Oof, just realized you had your model number in the heading. 2004B can handle cfw. My personal preference is rebug lite 4.86

Awesome, thanks!

Uhm, so I tried to do some more digging, but I couldn't really get my head around it.
Do I need to already have CFW installed, or will rebug do all the heavy lifting if I have the 4.86 OFW installed?

Alright, alright, alright!!
So, I overcomplicated things. All I needed was the rebug lite 4.86.1 on a thumbdrive and follow the instructions on the PS3Xploit help website for the bgtoolset.
A big thanks to everyone.
