A friend showed up yesterday with his PSP, apparently a used one that someone had given him because they hadn't used it in a long time. It's running 2.01 which, as far as I can tell, has a couple of vulnerabilities.
The ultimate goal is to get the thing running some kind of custom firmware (and from there set up a Pandora's battery so that we can reflash our 3.80 PSP). Last I heard, the best bet would be Dark-Alex's M33 firmware of some version.
As for downgrading, there is a 2.01 downgrader, which seems to work by faking the version number on the current firmware, allowing you to install the 1.50 upgrade. The problem is that it's really old, and I can't find any information on it - I can't even tell if the thing actually works. I also can't find any downloads of it, the required eLoader files, or just about anything else from that far back.
So, does anyone remember what to do with a 2.01 PSP, and where I can get hold of the required tools?
