PS3 Webman MOD Freezing XMB after exchanging HDD

[lucas1122]

Hi everyone I need help please
I used the Debug exchange HDD tool to upgrade to a 1TB hard drive, and it completed successfully after 9 hours, but the PS3 XMB does not load after the Evilnat logo. I hear the fan speed ramp up which tells me Webman was running in the background. I used the restore mode to restore the file system which notes the FS is corrupted, and this returns the XMB, minus Webman. But when I reinstall Webman MOD, I do not see the text flash that says "Installing Webman Mod full...". My controller disconnects and the system restarts and hangs on the wave animation on startup. I've repeated the process twice now, making sure no USB devices are attached but the result is the same.

The only thing I can think of that might affect it is that I used the unlock extra HDD space tool to change the system reserve of 8% to 1% HDD before I used the exchange HDD tool. Hoping Aldo sees this

There is an issue open in Github. I already answered there.

Verify that Cobra is enabled, then reinstall webMAN MOD.

Verify that /dev_hdd0/boot_plugins.txt exists and that the file contains a line like this:
/dev_hdd0/plugins/webftp_server.sprx

If webMAN is already installed, install this PKG to update webMAN MOD to the latest build:

The hang issue could be that your hard drive is accessing bad sectors. You should try with another HDD.
