Preparing memorycard to upload programs to GameCube with Action Replay

Alright, I dont speak french, but I was able, using babelfish and guessing, to get the cubeserver to work with the Starcube Loader 1.0b. So, to help out, I'll walk you through how to get everything working.
First off, what you will need:
Nintendo Memory Card 59 or 251 (Only the two offical cards work) PSO Action Replay (any version, the boot codes are on the [[http://gc-hack.fr.st/ gc-hack]] website) CubeServer Software Starcube 1.0b Loader
This walkthrough is for how to load the s3 loader onto the memory card, not to load a different dol file. I havnet personally done that yet, so, you are on your own.
As far as hardware setup goes, you need your memory card 59 in slot B, and your normal memory card for PSO in slot A. Your PC's IP Address needs to be 192.168.1.100, and the Gamecube 192.168.1.32. You probably want to set your PC's network card to 10BaseT Full Duplex.
Alright, first step, is to extract the cubeserver stuff. You need to extract this to the C: root so that you files are in the c:cubeserver directory. I had some trouble getting the cubeserver.exe to run, and it turned out i needed the dotnetfx.exe runtime thing (available on microsoft.com)
Next, open up cubeserver.exe. Now, direct your attention to where it says "DOL"sur CM, the whole area has a pink background. In that section, click the buttom with the "..." . This opens up a browse box. Here is where you need to select the s3-l.dol file that will eventually be uploaded to your memory card. This file is found in the s3 loader 1.0 package (which I cannot provide, as you should know) With that selected, hit the button that says Go (which is in the same pink section).
This opens up a new dialog box. In this box, there will be a dropdown menu that is by default set to level3.dol. Change this to the level4.dol option and hit the pink button that says "Preparer".
Now, hit the green button under the Injection section that says Lancer GCS.DOL. A green message box will pop up saying something about PSO. If you were to look at your processes, PSUL is running. So now, start up PSO and go through the normal process to load a .dol file. the CTR-GCS program will load up. Once it has loaded, the green message box should go away.
After this, hit the orange button that says "Level 3 Perso". A blue message box will pop up. Again, if you were to look at your running processes, you would see that ctr-gcs.exe was running. The program will begin copying the raw image to the memory card 59 in slot B. Once this is done, dont go turning off the gamecube. After a few seconds, it will copy another file to the memory card. While its doing this, an orange message box will appear. Once this goes away and the gamecube ctr-gcs program says "Not Conntected" you are clear to turn off the cube.
Now that thats done, put in action replay, and keep your newly formatted memory card in slot B. If you have action replay 1.06, the codes will already be set up for you. If not, you need to change the (m) code to match the correct version. You can determine your version by holding down the "Z" button on your controller. It says it in the box that pops up. Assuming you have your codes correct, start the game with all the default codes enabled. Open and close the lid when prompted without replacing the disc. The gamecube will restart and boot back to action replay. This is normal. Start the game again, but this time swap the action replay disc with any legit gamecube game. When you close the lid, it should boot to the A/C Loader Screen. You hit start here, and then you will be at the starcube screen. Everything else works like it normally would with PsO.
Any problems with this walkthrough or anything I am missing, let me know.
UPDATE
I found another way to do this without using the cubserver program. You simply take this [raw memory card image] and use the ctr-gcs program to flash a 59 or 251 memory card. Then, you boot action replay and change the codes accordingly. Either way works fine, however, using the cubeserver program you could put other .dol files on the card. With the the image, it comes preloaded with s3-loader1.0b on it.
Also, here are the codes for the different versions:
"V 1.06" : test� et fonctionne (m) 04F3-NK88-XXKA5 KMPN-KC9K-A30AE BH95-BTMX-7YTZQ "V 1.07" : non test� (m) KD4N-B7J4-KFQCJ RPR5-YM1P-REQVA TVYD-4GRW-QFT8B "V 1.08" : test� et fonctionne (m) XJFV-PHXJ-CFF2Q G397-P93T-MDDY9 D85M-GKPJ-VN5PT "V 1.09S" : test� et fonctionne (m) ZUQX-VFAP-EMM53 EQ2E-RJHC-R3G6J R19H-QDGC-HW9BN "V 1.09" (alias V1.10 sur la boite) : test� et fonctionne (m) VK9K-69K8-HPTAH 1VK1-5BZR-3NN5T ZJCY-RU3R-WN5UW "V 1.11 U" : test� et fonctionne (m) 282V-YRE8-D5G01 UHX1-V8GC-NQ9A2 YZWP-K7VZ-QPKB8 "V 1.12 U" : test� et fonctionne (m) K27K-XVTE-PG1HE UHX1-V8GC-NQ9A2 C70J-8982-Q0A2Z

Edited - You can use the 251 memory card as well as the 59. I've tested them both. However, the 251's larger space still does not allow for enough room to fit an older ACL onto the memory card.
