Yeah, get ready for an annoying time with me :D eheh
Anywho, where to start... ok, I have a network adaptor, a CAT-5 cable, and an ethernet adaptor, Im waiting for my router to arrive in the mail but for the time being I want to transfer files to my ps2 hdd. Can I do it with what I have and not having to actually connect to the internet via ps2?
my second question is, I downloaded PS2SDK, and I figured id start off with the hello project and try and understand it. I understand it ok but how do I compile it to an elf? once I get those 2 things out of the way hopefully I can begin developing .. :D hopefully... |

About your second question - compiling is invoked / controlled by "make" command. More info can be found for example here: http://crasseux.com/books/ctutorial/Writing-a-makefile.html |

You can use a crossover cable to connect your PS2 directly to your PC. _________________ Shoot Pixels Not People!

That is, the router provides DHCP mechanism, if you are too lazy to fix up all the IPs in your network. But you can fix them to custom values. Of course, this need a bit of clueness. _________________ pixel: A mischievous magical spirit associated with screen displays. The computer industry has frequently borrowed from mythology.
