Using plsign to generate a sig for rc.sh failed, the phatbox went into its loop.

That means there ARE two keys. Like I said in the other posts, I believe they are these two files:

pkeys2.e
pkeysa.e

Like A543 suggested, im going to try and remove one of these and duplicate the other, so both keys are the same. If I get them the right way round, and sign the system files with plsign, hopefully the phatbox will use the playlist key for the system files.

I guess the sig files for the above key files probably contain references to the filenames so they are gonna need modifying with a hex editor or something like that.

Ill try it tonight and let you guys know what I find.

In theory this should work, although if the system files key is also used for the actual drive checking, then it wont :)

crazy suggestion... has anyone tried totally removing the sig file?

Worth a try, but I have to say im pretty impressed by the level of security they have put into the phatbox, it would be pretty embarrasing if removing the sig file worked :)

I'll be able to work on things my end this weekend (not been able to yet due to building going on at home)

looking at strings plsign, there is mention to rsaref.h, so I presume RSA is used.

Also pkeys2.h is mentioned, so pkeys2.e might be the playlist key, with pkeysa.e as the system file key.
