eh, did you read a different text? metldr and lv0 are indeed different things.

and, as my link shows (but i quote it again):

 

"Q: What about newer consoles?
 A: So there’s the real problem. Remember how we said bootldr and metldr are fixed in hardware? Sony can create new hardware, and update those modules in the process."

 

so reading this: by now the ps3 is done but it can be changed by sony in future models.

No. Every PS3 shipped after July, 2011 is already fixed for any hack (bootldr and metldr)... they need a new hack to these models.

The scenario for metldr and lv0 are the same... nothing changed. The L1 hack just work in these consoles that works the metldr hack.

do you have a link to the statement with the ps3-fixes?

 

and please, lv0 and metldr are *not* the same.

 

again:

"Q: So what can we do with the lv0 signing key?
 A: In short, we can use it to decrypt lv0, modify it to patch out any lv0 security checks, and resign it with a legitimate key that bootldr will accept. With the chain of trust broken and lv0 no longer enforcing the security of the modules that it controls, we can then start modifying lv1ldr, lv2ldr, appldr, isoldr, etc to patch out their security checks and add CFW functionality."

 

this could not be done with metldr since last week.

 

but anyway, i'm out of here. the scene doesn't care about this thread or forum or anything, they will just go on, no matter who understands their work or not, no matter who says it is useless or not.
