I found a couple 3.41 CFW links for the latest version but it's not working. I'm getting the error code of 80029564 when trying to copy the pkg to PS3 which normally associates with a payload not running. I have Hermes PL4D running but it will not install. Any clues guys? Could there be a probem with the pkg compile for 3.41? Thanks!
