however, Debug PS3's cannot do this as they will update to retail firmware.

They check for system updates through a different URL,

We can use this link to download Debug firmware, but i do not know the effect of Debug firmware being installed on Retail PS3. If you click on the debug link, it give you a link to download the Debug 3.60 firmware


Here is a US 3.60 Debug Firmware Sample

Yes but you will get the same error when installing. You might be able to get past the update list and download it on your PS3 but as soon as it starts to install, I think you'll get the same error.
