Am I ok to wipe my unmodded sony memory card, then simply copy all the files on my other free mcboot card to it? will that make it, too, into a bootable free mcboot card?

I was going to do this in the file explorer, which is opened by selecting "LaunchELF"....just checking it's ok? thanks :)

don't know, but from what I remember, it's easy as hell to make a free mcboot card from another, just in general.

No has to run the installer everytime to make a FMCB

yeah, I figured. when I watched a video on making a fmcb card using another, when I made mine, they didn't simply clone the card, so I figured there must've been a reason.

so when I run the installer, would it be safer to, once in the installer, to remove my free mcboot card, from slot 1, then put my unmodded card in slot 1?

or can I install to slot 2, from within the installer?

what if there is not enough room on the memory card? how would I go about freeing up space, or is there an official sony utility to clean the card?
