Just wanted to mention that no you don't need to install Gen A before installing Gen B but you should uninstall the previous cfw beforehand otherwise you might end up running into issues like running out of flash space

And now.. i was wondering if they actually have IRShell working for hen gen or not?

I think I found a bug. I tried putting a "clean" .CSO file of "Shin Megami Tensei - Persona" on my PSP 3000, and no matter what I tried, I couldn't get it to actually run properly. Whenever I load it, the screen turns completely black, then it turns red for about 1 second and then it turns black again. However, the PSP isn't frozen. Sometimes the "Memory Stick Access Indicator" light flashes a bit, and I can still exit the game. But it still won't actually load (meaning I can't play it).

I just found another bug. If you install CFW 5.03 GEN-B and uninstall it (like I did by accident), then you try installing it again, it'll just act (the installer/loader, I mean) as if it is still installed, and it will only load whatever CFW is currently on there rather than provide you with a list of options, such as the choice to reinstall it. I've tried everything I could think of to be able to reinstall it, but nothing worked!

Do you have your iso driver set correctly, also do you have plain modules disabled? All of this is in the recovery menu advanced settings btw. It's not healthy to spot out bugs that aren't bugs sir. Also, they don't have to provide you with a list -.-

Sorry about that...

I guess I didn't know that those weren't bugs. Yes, the plain modules were disabled, and I tried all of the available ISO drivers.

Eventually, I seemed to have resolved both situations. But I have no idea how I got it to actually play the game. Also, I found out how to reinstall GEN-B (which was a very simple process that I was unaware of).
