What are the differences between XEB+ and FMCB and can the latter be installed in every PS2 model and without having installed FMCB first (so, when hacking the PS2 for the first time)?

XEB+ is a dashboard, FMCB is an app which modifies the OSDSYS on the fly.
Both can be used to launch ELFs.
FMCB usually gets installed as a bootloader and initializes the console by itself.
The Xmas Showcase of XEB+ does NOT includes a bootloader, so using PS2BBL is the recommended way to run it.
You can run XEB+ from FMCB or OpenTuna too.
The method depends on the console's model and in the fact of your MC having MagicGate or not.

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite+1

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+2 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -
@
BigOnYa:
Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
