Version 4.20.69 (DC10) r151

Rev 152b

• System Stability Improved.

Rev 151

• System Stability Improved.

Rev 150 (Kernel Addon)

• Added new 150 Kernel Addon that allows almost perfect compatibility with 1.50 homebrew on PSP 1K models. It works by installing the full 1.50 firmware on Memory Stick and running it via Time Machine.
• From Rev 152, the Kernel Addon has become a full-fledged 1.50 ARK Custom Firmware.

ARK itself will take care of booting the homebrew via 1.50 kernel and rebooting back to 6.61 once the homebrew has exited. An installer is available for both PSP as well as an option for MagicMemoryCreator on PC.

There are many reasons why to use 1.50 homebrew, for starters there are rare UMDs out there with multiple partitions that can only be fully dumped via this kernel, as well as legendary homebrew such as irShell.

Note that this is ONLY for PSP 1K (aka Phat or 1g), later models still need to rely on eLoader or Leda which have lower compatibility.
