Ran into an issue where it was stuck on loading hdd modules when booting from the DVD, even though I had no HDD (slim model). Finally figured out that i had to format the memory card (Head-Desk). Was a brand new card. Great vid!
How can you make a freemcboot if the drive dont work? Can you still make a memory card?? These tutorial are all assuming the drive works. I am tryn to check my laser
If you have a PHAT model PS2 you could likely do FreeHarddiskBoot: www.ps2-home.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3578 If not, there may be a way to make a freemcboot card if you have a PS2MemoryCard -> USB adapter (where you could then use your PC to make the FMCB card)... However in the event that you don't have one of those adapters the option I would recommend would be to either repair the laser in the unit or simply buy a FMCB card pre-made online.
Thanks bro great work done exactly what you did and everything worked great thanks 🙏
