Note: USB Flash Dump v1.0 is an exact copy of Glevand dump_flash only with icons changed.

INSTRUCTIONS
===========
1.install dump_flash.pkg
2.plug a usb stick with enough memory into usb001 (your ps3's first usb slot)
3.run dump_flash
4.your ps3 will black screen for about 2 min at the most for NOR based consoles then your console will beep and reboot itself back to XMB.
(dont worry just be patient let the tool work and dont power off the console for the risk of bricking).
For those of you who are using this on a NAND based conosle i have no clue how long it will take to dump so just be patient and let it work and dont power off for risk of bricking.
5.once the dumping is complete and your console has rebooted you can unplug the usb and go to your computer once at your computer open then usb folder and you will find a nice little file called flash.bin that is your consoles NOR/Nand flash (have fun)

To ensure you have a proper nor Dump it must be exactly 16.0 MB (16,777,216 bytes)
