It supports five categories of devices: USB mass\nstorage devices, MX4SIO (SD card connected to memory card port via adapter), iLink (SBP2 compliant storage devices via IEE1394), SMBv1 shares and the PlayStation 2 HDD unit.\nUSB\u002FSMB\u002FMX4SIO\u002FiLink support both USBExtreme and \\*.ISO formats while PS2 HDD supports HDLoader format,\nall devices also support ZSO format (compressed ISO). It's now the most compatible homebrew loader.\n\nOPL is developed continuously - anyone can contribute improvements to the project due to its open-source nature.\n\nYou can visit the Open PS2 Loader forum at:\n\n\u003Chttps:\u002F\u002Fwww.psx-place.com\u002Fforums\u002Fopen-ps2-loader-opl.77\u002F>\n\nYou can report compatibility game problems at:\n\n\u003Chttps:\u002F\u002Fwww.psx-place.com\u002Fthreads\u002Fopen-ps2-loader-game-bug-reports.19401\u002F>\n\nFor an updated compatibility list, you can visit the OPL-CL site at:\n\n\u003Chttp:\u002F\u002Fsx.sytes.net\u002Foplcl\u002Fgames.aspx>\n\n\u003Cdetails>\n  \u003Csummary> \u003Cb> Release types \u003C\u002Fb> \u003C\u002Fsummary>\n\u003Cp>\n\nOpen PS2 Loader bundle included several types of the same OPL version.

You can edit the config if you wish to use\u002Fcreate a different partition.\nAll partitions created by OPL will be 128Mb (it is not recommended to enlarge partitions as it will break LBAs, instead remove and recreate manually with uLaunchELF at a larger size if needed).\n\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C\u002Fdetails>\n\n\u003Cdetails>\n  \u003Csummary> \u003Cb> USB\u002FMX4SIO\u002FiLink \u003C\u002Fb> \u003C\u002Fsummary>\n\n\nGame files should be *ideally* defragmented either file by file or by whole drive,\nand games larger than 4gb must use USBExtreme format if device uses FAT32 format (see OPLUtil or USBUtil programs).\nWe do **not** recommend using any defrag programs. The best way for defragmenting - copy all files to pc, format USB, copy all files back.\nRepeat it once you faced defragmenting problem again.\n\n> NOTE: partial file fragmentation is supported (up to 64 fragments!) since OPL v1.2.0 - rev1893\n\n\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C\u002Fdetails>\n\n\u003Cdetails>\n  \u003Csummary> \u003Cb> SMB \u003C\u002Fb> \u003C\u002Fsummary>\n\u003Cp>\n\nFor loading games by SMB protocol, you need to share a folder (ex: PS2SMB)\non the host machine or NAS device and make sure that it has full read and\nwrite permissions.

HDD should be\nformatted with the APA partition scheme. OPL will create the `+OPL` partition on the HDD.\nTo avoid this, you can create a text file at the location `hdd0:__common:pfs:OPL\u002Fconf_hdd.txt`\nthat contains the preferred partition name (for example `__common`).\n\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C\u002Fdetails>\n\n\u003Cdetails>\n  \u003Csummary> \u003Cb> Cheats \u003C\u002Fb> \u003C\u002Fsummary>\n\u003Cp>\n\nOPL accepts `.cht` files in PS2RD format. Each cheat file corresponds to a specific game and must be stored in the `CHT` directory on your device.\nCheats are structured as hexadecimal codes, with proper headers as descriptions to identify their function.\nYou can activate cheats via OPL's graphical interface. Navigate to a games settings, enable cheats and select the desired mode.\n\n### cheat modes\n\n  * Auto Select Cheats:  \nThis mode will enable and apply all cheat codes in your `.cht` file to your game automatically.\n\n  * Select Game Cheats:  \nWhen enabled a cheat selection menu will appear when you launch a game.

Once it's ready, it should update the screen to say \"NBD Server running...\"\n  * Now you can connect with any of the following NBD clients.\n\n### nbd-client\n\nSupported: Linux, [Windows with WSL and custom kernel](https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fmicrosoft\u002FWSL\u002Fissues\u002F5968)\n\nnbd-client requires nbd kernel support.
