Copy the Coldboot.raf to /dev_flash/vsh/resource on your ps3 (You will need a way to write to flash eg. Asbestos or FreeFlash 3.55 compiled or dev_blind)

Do not change the size of the images There are no checks, if you change the size your coldboot will not work!


I have tested this on 3.55, it should work on 3.41 since the Coldboot.raf files are the same(Correct me if i'm wrong)
