Download a default copy of FREEMCB.CNF for 1.8

Manual CNF creation:
You can Pre-configure a CNF and include it in the FMCB_CFG folder  during the installation and it will be copied to mc0:/ SYS-CONF
You can also use the CNF from a USB device. See below the example CNF
Text in red  explains what the entry is  for, most is pretty much self-explainitory though.
Text in blue is new for FMCB 1.8

You can choose ON ( 1 ) or OFF  ( 0 ) for any options that  use ON/OFF

For the file paths, type in the exact filenames and locations {case sensitive} to ensure a working CNF. If your filenames,  extensions, or locations is different, it will not load!
Button  and Auto assigning

• LK_??_E1  is the first path searched for the assigned app
• LK_??_E2  is the second path searched for the assigned app
• LK_??_E3  is the third path searched for the assigned app

You can configure 3 different locations for the loader to search,  when you press an assigned button on startup or re-start of FMCB.
Very useful when using a lot of MCs and USB devices, giving you flexability to create a very  unique setups for  just about any situation.

After editing the FREEMCB.CNF just put it in the FMCB_CFG folder to be installed when you run the installer.

Alternatively, you can put a copy on a USB stick's root and it will be read first by the FMCB Launcher, before the Memory Card's CNF. 

• You can configure your CNF setups  for different OSD displays and app launches by using a USB and 2 MCs with different CNF files. The Configurator also has an option to Load a CNF from these 3 locations as well. The launcher's default loads from mass: first, then mc0:
• This will allow you to delete the existing CNF and Configurator app from the MC as a "child-proof" method of deterring small children from tampering with any configuration settings. They will however still be able to delete the installed system folders , so educate your children on the importance those folders {icons as they will see them} are for Free McBoot to work. By removing the USB stick, the console will boot as normal without any way to run apps or the Configurator and they can simply run a PS2 disc  like normal.
