[ydl-gen] PS3 2.53 / YDL 6.1

[daniel staggs]

Here's how to get back to the GameOS:

Put the PS3 in standby (if possible)
Shut it off using the switch in the back.
Turn the PS3 back on using the switch.
Hold the power button on the PS3 until you hear a second beep (or about 7
seconds)
When it turns back on, the default display setting and OS will be active and
you will have change those back to your preferred.

Now you can format the HDD again to remove YDL off of it, and restore the
HDD (if you backed it up before you started) using the system restore
option.

Hope this helps, if you have any questions feel free to shoot me an e-mail
at roguesangel16 at gmail.com.

No it doesn't, that model  should work fine. It's only models
manufactured in December that have this  issue.
