The readme didnt say he did (not that anyone reads them anymore so who knows what i'm talking about..) so STICK with the recovery\eboot.pbp running method of flashing 1.5 or reflashing 2.71 SE-A.

I found that when i first flashed 2.71 SE-A everything had gone mental. Graphics were screwy, couldnt load any homebrew at all, etc. So i ran recovery back to 1.5, then reflashed to 2.71 SE-A, and now all is good. All my homebrew, ISO's and UMD's work, including iRShell v2.2se8, DevHookMod 0.45, OpenTTD PSP, PiMPStreamer, etc etc etc

EDIT: SmackDown! vs. RAW 2006 ISO works fine for me. I have about 30 ISO's, about 5 of them reported as NON WORKING UNDER 2.71 SE-A, but i managed to get them all working fine. It's coz i'm smart.
