I just noticed this part: "Use a CVM tool to extract its content"

where can I get the CVM tool to unpack the CVM file? I looked all over the web and could hardly find any clues
I skipped this cause I thought having the CVM file from ISO is enough. do I need to extract anything from it? furthermore, *.ftp ---> the * refer to the ftp image file I'm trying to get? and do I get it after unpacking the CVM?

I'm sorry for all the silly questions and thank you for being so helpful

CVM tool is the tool by roxfan, available here

After you unpacked the .cvm file, you will have a a bunch of files. You'll be interested in .ftp and .mbp file pairs, and continue from there.

(*.ftp means files with "ftp" file extension)

... On second thought, considering CVM tool is also command line tool, so it can be equally difficult for you. So I ported the CVM tool (the extract part) to psxtools as PHP script. It should standardized the whole process and make it easier for you. I also updated step 3 on the tutorial on how to use it.

Let me know if you have any more problems. I'll fix the tutorial so other people can also use it.

Thanks,
