Dernière version au 15/10/2017 : wLaunchELF build 2017/09/09 (4.43a) : https://www.sendspace.com/file/frk94y.

LaunchELF v4.43a (2017-09-09)

Spoiler

Compiled with new PS2SDK revision, to solve:
---Unable to access PlayStation memory cards.
---FTP transfers failing to complete & network support ceasing to work afterwards.
---Fixed LoadExecPS2 patch - unable to boot discs and the "OSDSYS" option not working.
Reduced footprint of internal loader ELF, by linking with libkernel-nopatch instead since it does not need the kernel patches.

Changelog 4.43a - 2016-12-16 :

Spoiler

(kHn) Added AllowDVD IRX module, to enable DVD-video discs to be read (for ESR support, if uLaunchELF is used instead of FMCB).
Adjusted Hiryu's libcdvd library to not cause a freeze, if there is no disc inserted.
Removed the disc control option, since LaunchELF can now correctly determine if no disc is inserted.
Removed IOP Reset option, since LaunchELF is always rebooting the IOP at boot.
(doctorxyz) Added VGA mode.
(doctorxyz) Added slash and back-slash characters to the on-screen keyboard.
Cleaned up IOP reset code.
Cleaned up loader module.
Corrected region-detection code, for DVD player and OSDSYS update booting.
Fixed support for HDD unit capacities up to 2TB.
Cleaned up file I/O code, to use only fileXio.
Re-enabled code that preserves the timestamp for files copied to the HDD unit.
Compiled with the new PS2SDK updates.

Changelog WIP 7 - 04-06-2014 :

Spoiler

Rewritten tutorial for compiling uLaunchelf. You need to specify $PS2SDKSRC (which is actually git repository) and run prepare_main.sh or restore_ps2sdk.sh.
- fixed one warning in the libcdvd library
- now all libraries will install into $PS2DEV
- Added message about HDL game unloading (l_oliveira)
- partially reverted hdd_manager - now it loads hdl_game partitions much (i mean MUCH MORE) faster (thanks to l_oliveira)
- all source text files converted into linux format
- returned special symbols like triangle, square etc.
- now samba modules compile only when SMB flag is set (by default SMB = 0)
- changed cdinit argument so now ule dont have to freeze with disc control on on SCPH-5xxxx
- removed libjpg library, now is used the one from ps2sdk-ports
- fixed some warnings in vmc
- and of course everything is built with latest ps2sdk

KELF de MBR et image de partition __mbr pour rendre le HDD amorçable : ule_wip7.zip
Cette build date d'il y a + de 2 ans. Au moment où je la poste, une nouvelle build avec des mises à jour importantes est en cours d'élaboration.
Vérifiez le topic officiel de PSX-Scene au cas où une version rendant la WIP7 obsolète a été publié.

Changelog WIP 6 - 11-02-2013 :

Spoiler

* used latest ps2sdk so problem with chinese adaptors and big disks is probably solved
* removed 2Gb limit for single partition unit (maybe somebody can explain while we this limit was in all ule versions?)
* now expand function works with all partitions
* now we can create "__" partitions larger than 2Gb

Changelog WIP 5 - 10-27-2013 :

Spoiler

*minor fix

Changelog WIP 4 - 10-22-2013 :

Spoiler

* now all partitions which names are started from "__" are browsable;
* hide DELETE menu entry in HDD manager for partitions which are started from "__" (because PS2SDK has a bug - so these partitions cannot be removed)
* now it is possible to launch uLe from mbr (thanks kHn for tests and providing mbrs)

Changelog WIP 3 - 09-17-2013 :

Spoiler

added default directory for searching related files (hdd0:__sysconffs:/FMCB/)

Changelog WIP 2 - 09-13-2013:

Spoiler

* now it supports homebrew hdd paths:
e.g. hdd0:/__sysconf/FMCB/
* now you can load and save configuration files (including ipconfig.dat) from everywhere
* if you inject it in partition header via PATINFO it now tries to read LAUNCHELF.CNF from the root of partition if it is in PFS format. If it is not pfs partition it tries to load it from hdd0:/__sysconf/FMCB/ (specially for @l_oliveira)
* fixed problem with "X" and "O" button swap
* fully rewrote code for HDD manager. Tested with my 40Gb disk with 200 partitions.
10 minutes and 30s if ule_evilo is using

7 min if my code is using
Speed increase in 50%.
It is still not so fast dunno know why. I tested and the longest operations is fileXioOpen and fileXioMount (about 1second per each when we are at the end of list).

So assuming you have to place LAUNCHELF.CNF in the same folder where is uLe placed. You have to set homebrew paths to skins, languages and configuration files:
Code:
CNF_Path = hdd0:/__sysconf/FMCB/
USBMASS_FILE =
LANG_FILE = hdd0:/__sysconf/FMCB/russian.lng
FONT_FILE = hdd0:/__sysconf/FMCB/russian.fnt
SKIN_FILE = hdd0:/__sysconf/FMCB/Skin.jpg
You have to place IPCONFIG.DAT in folder mentioned in CNF_Path

Changelog WIP 1 - 09-06-2013 :

Spoiler

*uses latest PS2SDK, gsKit and usbhdfsd
*(crazycat) 64-bit support (files larger than 4Gb)
*(SP193) added support for disks larger than 1Tb
* added full support for all partitions in HDD manager (except of __mbr partition):
- you can rename any partition;
- you can delete any partition except of partition started with "__" (it is PS2SDK feature);
- returned support for codebreaker partition (don't forget that it can be broken);
- now all partition recognized by partition flag (0x0001 - mbr, 0x1337 - HDL partition, 0x0100 - PFS partition)
- if you press Square on HDL partition - you can load HDL info, if you press Square again - you can unload HDL info (it is needed for renaming HDL partition without reloading HDD manager);
- you can expand only PFS partitions;
* now uLe support official hdd loading path, after loading he mounts partitions from where it is loading into pfs0:/, so now you can simply load LAUNCHELF.CNF which is placed in the same place as uLe.
You can also load language files and skins from the same mounted partition. You need to specify path to it in pfs format. (For example pfs0:/FMCB/skin.jpg)

Known bugs and limitations:

- you cannot use hdd0: paths in the LAUNCHELF.CNF (I have to rewrite too much)
- it still uses fakehost for launching from hdd (sorry no way for passing normal arguments)
- it cannot return into ps2 browser after network modules are loaded (maybe somebody can tell me why?)
