Now you have to load the games on hdd; here's how to do it:
To load the games on the hard disc there are various methods: using the PS2 player directly or using the pc.
The first method is also the simplest as it is enough to start hdloader and insert the game to be copied to hdd inside the PS2 player, but this method is also the most harmful because in the long run it ruins the PS2 lens (as it happened to me, so I don't recommend it ..)
There are two other methods to load games on hdd and you have to use a pc.
The best (according to my point of view) and also the fastest is to remove the hard disc from the ps2 and connect it directly to the ide port of the pc (temporarily detaching a cd player or attaching it to a free ide). To follow this procedure you will have to use Winhiip which is a simple program that copies the game to the PS2 partitioned hdd from an image file on your pc hdd or from a dvd player.
The other method uses the network so you need a network card on the pc, a crossover rj45 network cable and that the PS2 is close to the pc in order to connect them with the network cable.
After configuring the PS2 and the pc for network connection start the hdldumb elf from the pc (or from memory card) and through the excellent hdldumb gui install the games.
This method is very slow even if simpler because you don't have to unmount the hard disk from the PS2.
