RE: Kernel Panics.
When you run the kernel exploit you are trying to force code to run in an already running process. Sometimes it will fail.
I like to think of it like this:
Think of the PS4 as being a fast moving bus with it's doors open.
Think of running the Exploit as You trying to jump into that moving bus.
Sometimes you will jump straight through the doors and safely onto the bus.
Success, HEN Loaded!!!
BUT, sometimes you will miss.
Kernel Panic!!!
The best thing to do when you have a kernel panic is this:
After the PS4 has rebooted and done it's checks,
DO NOT try and run the exploit again straight away.
Instead go to power and select 'Restart the PS4'. After the PS4 has rebooted again, wait at least 30 seconds before running the exploit.
Although this is not guaranteed to solve the problem it is used and advised by a lot of people, including myself and does seem to help.
RE: Self Hosting.
Self hosting is running an Exploit Host menu (my Exploit Menu or X-Project etc.) from your computer instead of from the internet.
If you want to try self hosting, the quickest method is to use my Exploit Host Server program and my Exploit Menu. (This method using the Server will also work with X-Project)
1. Download and extract 'Exploit Host Menu v6.2 Leeful.rar' and 'Exploit Host Server.rar
' from the post
HERE.
2. Put the Exploit Host Server exe next to the index.html and run it.
3. Open the Browser app on your PS4 and put in the exact address that it tells you in the Exploit Host Server program.
You can now cache the exploit host so that you do not have to host it from your computer anymore or be connected to the internet on your PS4.
If you are using my menu go to 'TOOLS 2' and select '*Offline Cache'. If you are using X-Project go to 'CACHE' and select 'HOST CACHE'.
