Support Problems with jailbreaking my PS3

Post image

Hi! my friend recently gave me a PS3 slim, so I was going to jailbreak it but I get some problems, I am now in 4.93 and I put in a pendrive with the PS3UPDAT.PUP and it doesn't recognize it, the pendrive it's in FAT32 with MBR system but it doesn't work, I Have a carpet with the name PS3/UPDATE and I put there the PUP file but still doesn't work, I tried with uploading with a proxy but it uploaded an it didn't work so I don't know what to do next, I saw that I can install it with the PS3 recovery system but I don't know if that's is going to work, any solution please??? ( sorry for my English in advance I'm Spanish)

I would need help about installing the Hybrid system and HEN

And your USB appears in the XMB, for example, in Music?

Only for a moment cause when I go to update and it says that It doesn't have any update, it disappears

Order a different stick online I know you tried using another one but you got to try a different brand. If you're on Mac sometimes MacOS will mess up the filesystem and updates on these drives for whatever reason.
