-	~~== Dumping PSP discs with two partitions ==~~

-	~~A few discs such as "Demo Disc for PSP Vol. 1" or "Stealth + WipEout Pure" contains two different partitions on the same disc, one for the game and one for the video sections.~~
-	~~Those discs need a different process and a different tool to be dumped correctly. [http://forum.redump.org/post/45825/#p45825]~~
-	~~UMDKiller requires the Note button of the console to be pressed, so this particular tool is not compatible with the PSP Street console (the button is missing).~~
-	~~Note: UMD_DATA.BIN of each ISO has the partition number, 0001 & 0002.~~
-	~~# Use UMDKiller V1.2 [https://www.mediafire.com/folder/cs0h0unc78420bl,wrkda3z47asoma0,9rycn7u2kvs82ac,9s7npzsimmj0f1j/shared] to dump the first partition. It will be saved to ms0:/ISO/UCJB-98306.iso.~~
-	~~# Connect your PSP to a PC and rename the dumped ISO as "UCJB-98306_0001.iso" and then move it onto the PC.~~
-	~~# Use UMDKillerPRX V1.5 to dump the second partition. It will be saved to ms0:/ISO/UCJB-98306.iso.~~
-	~~# Connect your PSP to a PC and rename the dumped ISO as "UCJB-98306_0002.iso" and then move it onto the PC.~~
-	~~# Open Notepad and type the text below, make sure to modify the filenames to match your ISOs.~~
-
-	~~copy /b UCJB-98306_0001.iso + UCJB-98306_0002.iso UCJB-98306_merged.iso~~
-
-	~~# Save the file as Merge.bat and move it to the same location as the two ISO dumps.~~
-	~~# Double-click the Merge.bat to merge the ISOs into one file, "UCJB-98306_merged.iso" is created.~~
-	~~# Use clrmamepro's Dir2Dat function and uncheck everything except Add MD5+SHA1, create the .dat file to save the three ISO hashes.~~
