This will launch a OSDSYS from your MC.

If you have a PS2 with v2.30 BIOS or higher, you can use this application as DEV1 (mc0:/BOOT/BOOT.ELF) as well as
a FORTUNA default ELF (mc0:/FORTUNA/BOOT.ELF) replacment and use it to launch the FMCB hacked OSDSYS or XEB/XEB+.

Detailed instructions for FMCB installation on SCPH-900XX or PSTV:

4 - Create a folder called "APPS" inside the "INSTALL" folder
5 - Paste you beloved apps in there (OPL, uLE, etc)
6 - Copy the installation files to a pendrive and put it on your PS2

Diferences with FORTUNA FMCB Launcher by VTSTech:
Well, it seems that VTSTech did NOT tested his application on real hardware. His application will NOT work properly
on consoles with v2.30+ BIOS. Of course, it will work as intended on any console with v2.20 or lower, but that's not
the main reason to use this application, right?

Notes:
We made an "small" adjustment on the software logic to avoid a certain issue: people having a messy FMCB installation
on their memory card AND users using a launcher from "certain developer" who does not knows how to reset IOP properly.
It seems that there's someone on eBay selling FMCB memory cards with a "multi-region" installed FMCB v1.8C which
includes three different FMCBs installations made from three different consoles. That setup is a nonsense as the
KELFs are not really region free, these are ELFs injected on the DVDELFs from XXX01, XXX04 and XXX06. That seller
does not seems to know that FMCB v1.9 exists and can do proper multi-region installations.
If you do not have these kind of frankenfmcb, ANY ELF in our release should work for you, but, if that's not the case,
please, select the proper one for your region.
