Congrats! Your PS3 is now jailbroken! Below will be some links to recommended packages to install onto your PS3.
6.
Installing Recommended Packages
Install Rebug Toolbox.
Browse to Install Packages → Standard → Rebug Toolbox.pkg.
Enable the QA Flag.
Browse to the last column of Rebug Toolbox and select "Toggle QA Flag". This will allow you to install any firmware over your current one, in case something goes wrong.
Dump your EID0_root_key and back it up to your PC.
Plug a flash drive into the rightmost USB port and launch Rebug Toolbox. In the last column select "Dump EID0_root_key" and it will back it up to your flash drive. This will let you access your hard drive files in the case that your PS3 dies.
In some cases, it will back up to your hard drive instead of your flash drive. If this happens, use Multiman's file manager to browse to /dev_hdd0/game/RBGTLBOX2/USRDIR/ and copy eid_root_key to your flash drive.
Enable Cobra, Webman, and CFW Settings.
Launch Rebug Toolbox and enable Cobra, Webman, and CFW Settings in the second column.

This would've been so useful if they didn't stop data transferring from games like GTA 5 and shit... fuck.
