Wow that was fast. I think I'll update my old 1004 series PSP and try this out.

Is the 1.5 sub set available for this? Are there plans for it if not? And if the answer to both of these is no, is there a way to go around the necessity for 1.50?

I think that there is something called eboot to iso that will convert an eboot into an iso file so that you can play it regardless of kernel

did they bother to test it this time

(releasing known to be borked software is a great way to end up on my trust list)

I guess if Dax is gone i might have to suck up my pride and eventually go for Gen cfw, but i don't appreciate being used as a guinea pig because Gen can't be arsed to test their cfw properly to rush it out, i appreciate Gen's hard work but they got a long way before i trust my Psp with them.

Well, it's great but all browser based homebrew (ultimatePSPTube, Netfront Browser Beta, ....) have stopped working. But other than that awesome work guys.

How's the compatability with emulators? I heard the previous gens had some compatability issues...

I've got no issues using MasterBoy and gpSP.

what about things like PSPMSX, Neko Project, NesterJ, and Final Burn Alpha?

NesterJ didn't work for me, until I got a newer version.
Generally, if an emulator isn't working in GEN, a later version somehow does. If it doesn't, try a different one.

MY PSP2000 model no longer has support for internet except those that are built into the PSP itself such as the Beaterator net features do not connect to the Net anymore. If it's a homebrew or a commercial piece of software, it's not going to connect to the net on my PSP, but I can still use the PSP standard browser (which I realized how much it sucks compared to Netfront Beta 4). Makes me want to cry.

Of course, I've been having these issues since 5.50GEN-C.

Can one explain this? The readme.txt never states that you can use XGEN to upgrade and downgrade from 6.10, it only mentions "up to 6.00".

Might clear that up?

Just to make you aware, after installing i coudn't get any games to work, after a quick check in the recovery menu the update had reset my 'UMD mode' to Normal-UMD required. So switched it back to Sony NP9660 and all is well with the world :-) New games seem to be working fine too :-]
