kmem.bin-How do I open these?

Curious on how to open the kmem.bin file I managed to dump from my PSPgo. Could someone explain how to open the .bin files? Thank you in advance.

Moved to PSP dev, due to the specialist nature of the request.

Im not sure how it is opened, Power ISO can use .BIN files; can it open this one...not sure.

That BIN file was used on past FW's for hacking, along with a couple of others - you possibly could make something usable from it but not sure how you would launch it though.

Some of the dev's amongst us would be better placed to answer this.

I would have no idea and you would get a faster response at either ps2dev or lan.st - or i would pm hellcat here on exophase first

You dumped KERNEL MEMORY on your PSPgo? Nice, how?

About the original question:
A simple hex-editor will suffice.
Or disassemblers like IDA if you're looking for actual code fragments.

A member from m0skit0`s site had posted a bin file which can be used with the savegame exploit and it seems to dump the memory of the Go. This is what it had dumped into my MS:
kmem.bin (approx. 4mb)
slim-highmem.bin (approx. 32mb)
umem.bin (approx. 24mb)
If you would like to take a look at the files, I will PM you for a link to my files for I do not want to post them here. Thanx for the answering my post guys.

Wow, I'd like that .BIN file :D

If it really dumps kmem, it must have a ksploit in it :D
What FW does it work on? 6.20?

/me wants 6.20 ksploit :D

Hahahaha! Also forgot to tell it is read only so you cannot write, but I am sure for a dev it should give you some good information about the Go.

Yes! I think we all do! And, I would like to take a look at it to :D

Hellcat, any decent HEX editor would work right?

The kernel exploit used in that kmem dumper is read only, doesn't dump all kernel memory, and only works via a flaw in the GO's drivers.

For a developer though, Allegrex kernel mem might be interesting to inspect, but I doubt it.

The gold will be a read and write ksploit for 6.xx all models ;-)

I can has hax nao?
use ps2dis and load it from block 0x88000000, next invoke the analyzer and allow for it to finish.
you can then view the mips assembly from the kernel memory, the rest is up to you to sort out (learning or knowing asm and finding valuable functions to exploit)..

Ironicly still no one had told him what to do with the bin.... just a buncha off topic shit whats up with that? mr gimmy gimmy's
