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!!

• 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

I dont see why they would create a Gui. Sorry

Well anyways I would just run it on linux or some how get a version of linux(maybe something light like Unbuntu or Arch*if it will run it*) and just do it that way.

Ive used cygwin before and Ive ran into quite a bit of problems using it depending on what you do or if its updated ever. I can definitely tell this is most likely one of those SDK's that won't be ever comming to windows, besides through something like cygwin.

Yea unfortunately the chain is Linux only. any way yes i have it set up in Ubuntu. just make sure your running in "ROOT" Im not sure how familiar you are with Linux but make sure to set the root pass word using "sudo passwd root" and then type you pass word. And then switch user using "su"

Yeah I know I have Unbuntu(Xunbuntu technically I guess). The partition nearly takes up all of my 300GB Laptop drive so I mise make it worth something. :bat:

    ~/.bashrc export PSL1GHT=$PS3DEV/PSL1GHT/psl1ght/build

Gives me....

     /home/jesse/.bashrc: Line 6: return: can olny 'return' from a function or sourced script.

this is for installing pslight sdk

had the same problem

to fix this you have to right click buildit.sh /properties/security/ click on your user name and tick "full control" then apply. then it will work.

Edit: actually it dosn't work just get "cannot change ownership to uid" errors

im on windows 7 and it gave me the error, so i went the the buildit.sh file and clicked "take ownership" and it worked for me.

Needs to be root.

su

password: Whatever your password is.
