SETTING UP PS3CHAIN & PSL1GHT IN WINDOWS
Hello NGU this tutorial is written and created by Dm430. Today you will be learning to set up the ps3 tool chain and the PSL1GHT Sdk without Linux. So lets start!!
!!WHAT YOU NEED!!
- CygWin (Adds Linux Environment to windows)
- ps3chain
- PSL1GHT
To Start download Cygwin You must login or register to view this content.. Next lets set up your Cygwin. Select install from internet.
You must login or register to view this content.
Next Click Devel until it turns from default to install and then install wget from web.
You must login or register to view this content.
Let it all download and install this will take a little depending on what mirror you chose. My download took about 10 minutes. It will then install Next it to open up you bash shell.
in your bash shell type
mkdir -p ~/dev/ps3
mkdir stands for make directory so we will be creating a directory in your profile C:\cygwin\home\"your user name"\dev\ps3
Next we need to modify are bashrc to set PS3DEV in are environment. to do so type the following in the bash shell.
export PS3DEV=$HOME/dev/ps3
export PATH=$PATH:$PS3DEV/bin:$PS3DEV/ppu/bin:$PS3DEV/spu/bin
This will update the bashrc
Next we have to create a clone of the ps3 tool chain from github to do this type the following
cd $PS3DEV
git clone git://github.com/HACKERCHANNEL/ps3chain.git
it then will copy it!
The next and final step to install the tool chain is to type
cd ps3chain
./buildit.sh all
now let the automated script do the rest for you come back in a while surf the internet watch tv or take a nap if there are no errors its done!
Well thats all for now happy thanks giving
. more later today.:p

All steps work fine except for the last one ... when I enter "./buildit.sh all" I get "bash: ./buildit.sh: Permission denied" ... Any suggestions as to how I fix/get past this? I am on winXP SP3 by the way. Thanks
hmm that's odd it should not do that i will get back to you soon when i have my laptop

very interesting tutorial, thank you.
I had the same problem, but easily fixed it with a chmod 777 buildit.sh

I have come across this setup tutorial that looks like it is up to date -> You must login or register to view this content.
Please note it suggests you need ps3toolchain instead of ps3chain for ps3load to build ??? "21-nov-10: using ooPo’s ps3toolchain instead of ps3chain: it is updated and let me build ps3load"
I am a bit confused with the first part of this tutorial though (see below)
"Let’s start from software needed to build the toolchain:
sudo apt-get install autoconf automake bison flex gcc make wget
git libppl0.10-dev libcloog-ppl-dev libelf-dev
libncurses5-dev texinfo build-essential
python zlib1g-dev pkg-config libtool python-dev"
It it saying that these components are required but when I try to enter the first line of the above code for adding these components in cygwin bash shell I get "bash: sudo: command not found" error ???
Any suggestions ???

well to start there is no use for sudo in the cygwin bash shell you already have "root" accesses as for installing packages to cygwin like Automake im not sure but that shouldn't even be necessary

Million Miles Of Fun!
I personally hate cygwin as it can cause a load of issues and problems down the road if everything didn't install correctly, even if it appeared to. Most people won't have a need for this unless they know C++ as this isn't something the average person is just going to use.
Does anyone know if they are going to GUI the update or is it going to be more like the PSPSDK?
