In Topic: Preloader v0.30 Installer / Removal Tool

19 October 2009 - 09:31 PM

Just though that I would pipe in and say that I hope to have r5 out sometime tomorrow. Other than USB support there will also be a new autoboot option. This option is for launching dols anywhere on SD/USB or any installed channel. A seperate ini file will be copied to the nand called "myboot.ini" that will contain the appropriate settings that you can customize to suit.

Examples:

CODE
boot:CHANNEL
data:HADP


The above would autoboot the internet channel on a pal console.

CODE
boot:DOL
data:/apps/myapp/boot.dol


The above would load the dol file located in that path on sd/usb.

In light of recent posts I though this information might calm people down a little wink.gif

First post updated to v1.0.3, couldn't be bothered to start a new thread as I didn't see any point!

Nothing much added, except that it now returns an exit code on success, in order to not confuse linkage with make. You can also drag and drop dols on top of the file to output a .app file with the same name as the input .dol. This update is likely to be the final version!

Hopefully the next version will fix the GX and CFG forwarder issues. It certainly isn't a
problem with the dols as they worked 100% in .29.

This makes it .30s fault... something in the code changed to make them not work anymore.


The problem is that crediar did not release the source code for 0.29, so if anything changed it's something he changed in the 0.30 source. Compiling against the newest version of libogc may also cause issues. This is something I will look into, but posting in big red bold letters is not going to encourage me to make your issue a priority. Only posting constructive feedback, like most of the posters in this thread will do that.

the restarting issue is still something on the bugs list and no one seems to care, what up with that..?? huh.gif


I have been unable to replicate this issue in rev 4. Have you tried removing and reinstalling preloader using the IOS249 method, as you may have a corrupt loader.ini, that's causing the issue? I may add a regeneration option for this config file at some point.

The problem is that preloader no longer recognizes the usbdrive as a source for files.


That is correct, as I removed this to fix SDHC support properly. USB 1.1/2.0 support will be implemented in rev 5.


Finally, if I have not responded to any issues directly, don't worry about it, I have read all the feedback in this thread and appreciate all your constructive posts. These posts are all taken on board and considered as the development cycle progresses.

When I try to use dolboot in my Makefile, even when its successful (I get the Done! message) my make output's an Error 1 code.
using the...
dolboot $(TARGET).dol target.app
example.

Any ideas?


Just ignore this for now as I forgot to return the correct response to make, will fix this but it's not going to effect your compile.

I've been playing around and so far I don't know what you mean about everything changing in IOS70. The ES_Identify patch, NAND permissions patch, and Trucha patch are all there and located the same way (ie. looking for the suspect hex strings turn up only 1 result in the 0000000e.app file of IOS70.


Patching is fine, I was referring to getting the system menu booting under IOS70 without patching it, currently an impossibility.
