How to Install PS3 PKG Files from exFAT & NTFS USB Drives | Large 4 GB+ PKG Support!

A major limitation of installing PKG files from a USB device on the PS3 is being forced to stick to the FAT32 file system. You typically have to take an extra step to format large drives to this, and this file system doesn't support any files larger than 4 GB in size. However thanks to a write-up posted by PSX-Place user Louay, we now have a clear cut method of installing any PKG files from exFAT or NTFS USB drives! This does not require FTP transfers, nor does it require splitting up a PKG, just copy it to the correct folder and mount it!

This method of PKG installation requires you to have either a jailbroken PS3 console running custom firmware or a console modified with PS3HEN. This video will assume you already own a modified console and have at least a basic understanding of how to navigate it. webMAN MOD and prepISO will be required in order for this to work, if you choose to follow along. Lastly, you will still need a FAT32 formatted USB drive to do the initial installations of webMAN MOD and prepISO, after that any PKG files you wish to install can be copied to an exFAT or NTFS formatted USB drive.

You always release these things exactly when I need them. Scary!

Finally, I was able to transfer large files without dividing them. Thank you, your friend from Iraq 🌹❤️

I love this channel. You actually break down what to do. Not many channels do that.

Dude, again, I love your tutorials. I will 100% be making sure I give you all the credit in terms of my own content creation for future youtube videos because your tutorials have allowed me to properly record PS2 games for my videos. You're amazing. I don't see how your tutorials could be topped.

This quote is from the forum: "Get an NTFS drive so you can place a full, unsplit PKG on it and plug it in. Open up Irisman, hit start and Tools then File Manager. Find your PKG, press Square and choose Mount + Exit. You'll be taken back to the XMB and your PKG will show up in the Install PKG section like normal." I have done it yesterday and its much simpler. Just mount the pkg then install through xmb. When i loaded irishman again then closed it the pkg got unmounted. so no extra/ dulicate space occupied.

The folders don't show up, only webman setup

For those questioning about the black screen. if after a minute the screen is still black just reset the console and try again.

When I saw my ps3 fan so fast, then I went on a panic mode, but when you said its normal, I quickly went back to normal, lol

[MrDylanKG]

How come It only shows webMANSetup and doesnt show the other stuff

[orionjackson]

Just wanted to say after 4 years this video is still useful as hell, I love your videos you have helped me jailbreak so many of my consoles thank you so much for everything :D

[ModzvilleUSA]

I remember dabbling with this way back in like 2015 4.50ish rogero days via multiman. I totally said screw it and formatted to fat32 and used PS3splitter haha. Solid work as always my dude!

[Lucio]

My dude, you're a true master. Love so much your channel, you have the best guides on youtube and every time i follow them, i know i will not have any trouble. Much appreciated, keep up the great work!

[ToniCiprianiEntertainment]

Why doesn't my game appear in webman games? I followed all the steps

[WcaVR]

So, i linked this video already to someone who need your tutorial aid.
nice one mate, i'm glad i bookmarked it :)

[PROD.ECHOCRAFT]

I created the PKG folder on the USB and there's still no BluRay folder on the PS3 when I run prepiso

[squidwardtentacles]

Omg thank you for this your videos are so helpful! I wondered why there was a "PKG" and a "packages" folder. Your how-tos are straight forward but also with enough extra detail and explanation without overdoing it. I installed hen on my ps3 and have had quite the learning curve doing everything.
I'm trying to condense my number of consoles by making them able to play games for more than one system and so now I can play most of my ps2 ganes on ps3!

[bethcoffman]

You always have the right video, respect.

[driftyprince]

thanks a ton man, whenever I hit a dead end with my ps3, you are always there to help out
