# Transfer Games to Playstation 2 Hard Drive on Linux
Add and delete games from our FAT PS2 IDE Hard Drive using HDL Dump Helper GUI.
This is a java frontend for the commandline program called hdl_dump.
It has Linux and Windows build, and some says it works on MacOS also.
This program cannot format your hard drive, so you would still need to either use **winhiip** on Windows or
I believe you can format your hard drive directly from the PS2 as well using **HDLoader** from FreeMcBoot.

### Hardware Requirements
- Modded/Softmodded PS2 (Modchip, FreeMcboot or FreeHDBoot)
- PS2 Network Adapter
- IDE to USB Adapter
- IDE Hard Drive already formatted to the PS2
### Software Requirements:
- java (search in the package manager for **jre** and install one of those e.g: **jre8-openjdk**)
- hdl_dump_helper
- http://www.ps2-home.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2738

### HDL Dump Helper
Extract hdl_dump_helper_gui_v2.3.rar
# change permissions so it can run
chmod +x launcher-linux.sh
chmod +x hdl_dump_086
chmod +x hdl_dump_090
# start the program
./launcher-linux.sh
### Find Which is Your PS2 HDD
# shows a list of storage device
lsblk -o "KNAME,HOTPLUG,SIZE,FSTYPE,TYPE,LABEL,MOUNTPOINT,UUID,MODEL,SERIAL"
### Common Issue
# Sometime it will fail to transfer because you have the same game name or similar e.g:
WWE SMACKDOWN VS RAW 2007
WWE SMACKDOWN VS RAW 2011
# The Fix is to just rename it a little bit like add or removing one letter e.g:
WWE SMACKDOWN VS RAW 2007
WWE SMACKDOWN V RAW 2011
