== Installing onto Memorystick ==
Now that you know your firmware version we can begin with the installation instructions which are different for the firmwares, depending on the exploit they are using.
 
=== Firmware 1.00/1.50 CF - No Exploit ===
Firmware 1.00 needed no exploit to run homebrew as there was no security against the system from running unsigned eboot.pbp's. Firmware 1.50 CF patched a PSP running a regular firmware 1.50 so that it could run unsigned eboot.pbp's like firmware 1.00 (among other features).
 
To install ScummVM on one of these firmwares, copy the folder inside the single-eboot folder from the ScummVM PSP zip to <tt>X:/PSP/GAME/</tt>. Then run from the XMB.
 
=== Firmware 1.50/1.50 CF - kxploit ===
Patching the vunerability that firmware 1.00 had, firmware 1.50 was released. Shortly after, an exploit was found, 'swaploit', which involved swaping between two memory sticks which enabled the homebrew to load. Later, kxploit was released which could load homebrew from one memory stick using 2 folders (i.e. <tt>example</tt> and <tt>example%</tt>)


There are also two unofficial versions:
To install ScummVM on one of these firmwares, copy the folders inside the 1.50-eboot folder from the ScummVM PSP zip to <tt>X:/PSP/GAME/</tt>. Then run from the XMB.


*1.50 CF (= 1.5 Custom Firmware)
=== Firmware 2.00/2.01/2.50/2.60/2.70/2.71/2.80 - Eloader ===
*2.71 SE-A
It was firmware 1.51 that blocked kxploit, but many PSP users refused to update. This caused Sony to release a major update that would tempt people to update. Thus, firmware 2.00 was released which came with a built-in web browser, and caused many PSP users to update. However, one of the new features brought two new exploits (both are TIFF exploits). The first was exclusive to 2.00 and was patched with 2.01. The second wasn't discovered until after firmware 2.80 was released, a vunerability with libtiff. Team Noobz have built on these exploits to bring the homebrew community Eboot Loaders (called Eloader)


== Firmware 1.00 ==
To install ScummVM on one of these firmwares, copy the folder inside the single-eboot folder from the ScummVM PSP zip to <tt>X:/PSP/GAME/</tt>. You now, also need to install Eloader, the newest version can be found at [http://www.noobz.eu www.noobz.eu]. Download the exe and follow the instructions to make sure you install successfully. Once you have Eloader installed, turn your PSP on and go to the XMB photo viewer. There should be a new folder called eloader0995. Trying to open this folder will do one of two things:
Put the single eboot file (eboot.pbp) in a folder scummvm-psp on your memory stick in the game folder, which is in the psp folder (so <tt>ms0:/psp/game/scummvm-psp/eboot.pbp</tt>, where <tt>ms0:/</tt> is your memory stick root) then you go into the <tt>__SCE__scummvm-psp</tt> folder and copy all the files EXCEPT the eboot.pbp into the folder that you placed the single eboot.pbp (so <tt>ms0:/psp/game/scummvm-psp/</tt>) run from XMB (cross media bar, which is what you see when you turn the PSP on).


== Firmware 1.50/1.50 CF ==
# Crash your PSP. If this should happen, restart your PSP and try again.
Copy the folders <tt>__SCE__scummvm-psp</tt> and <tt>%__SCE__scummvm-psp</tt> into the game folder in the psp folder on your memory stick (so <tt>ms0:/psp/game/%__SCE__scummvm-psp/</tt> and <tt>ms0:/psp/game/__SCE__scummvm-psp/</tt>). Run from XMB.
# Start Eloader. Run from Eloader menu.  
1.50 CF can also follow 1.00 instructions, (if you would prefer only having one folder).


== Firmware 1.51/1.52/2.80/2.81 ==
=== Firmware 2.71 SE/3.02 OE/3.03 OE ===
At the time of this writing, one cannot use any homebrew software (including ScummVM) on these firmwares (except for TIFF homebrew on 2.80). 1.51 and 1.52, however, can be upgraded to 2.0-2.71, allowing the use of homebrew software.
All of these custom firmwares were made by Dark_AleX. They combine firmware 1.50 with another firmware (as stated in their names) so PSP users can play homebrew and use higher firmware features (most recently POPS the official PS1 emulator), without needing devhook, two PSPs or a modchip.


== Firmware 2.00/2.01/2.50/2.60/2.70/2.71 ==
To install ScummVM on one of these firmwares, copy the folders inside the 1.50-eboot folder from the ScummVM PSP zip to <tt>X:/PSP/GAME150/</tt>. Then run from the XMB.
Follow the instructions for firmware 1.0 until (but not including) the point where you are supposed to run XMB. Don't actually try to run XMB, as it wont work. You now need to download [http://www.noobz.eu eLoader] (0.99 was the latest eloader version when this text was written). Use the exe if you can, but there should be a readme for installation. Once installed go to "photo viewer" then press start when on the folder called "eloader 099" (or something similar). This will load eMenu. Now just locate scummvm-psp and press X. For firmware 2.71, you also have the option to use HenC.
Alternatively, copy the folder inside the single-eboot folder from the ScummVM PSP zip to <tt>X:/PSP/GAME150/</tt>. Then run from the XMB.


== Firmware 2.71 SE-A ==
=== Firmware 1.51/1.52/2.81/3.00/3.01/3.02/3.03 ===
Follow the instructions for firmware 1.0, except that you place the scummvm-psp folder in the game150 folder rather than the game folder (so <tt>ms0:/psp/game150/scummvm-psp/</tt>). Now run from XMB.
Currently there is no exploit that allows you to run unsigned eboots on these firmwares. 1.51 and 1.52 can upgrade to a higher firmware that runs homebrew. <tt>X:/</tt> is the drive given to your PSP by windows (i.e. <tt>G:/</tt>). XMB stands for Cross Media Bar, which is the menu you get on your PSP (also on PS3).
