Hi !
I'm totally a newbie to PS2 programming so sorry for my stupidness, just recently take a look at PS2SDK. I also coded some simple programs, work fine on Naplink but totally failed from other loaders such as LaunchELF even the "Hello world" that was bundled in PS2SDK1.2

I did these steps for the "Hello world !" ELF:
FTP -> mc0:/HELLO.ELF --> boot LaunchELF -->FileBrower --> execute --> freeze...nothing

(Here Helloworld from PS2SDK for your easy ref.)

which version of ps2link are you using? are you modded or using swap/exploit?

I have problems with the 1.30 version (Im with a mod chip) that is floating around, best to go with the v1.24 from the link on ps2dev.org - it was built with a myriad of IRX versions that seem to really work well together -http://ps2dev.org/kb.x?T=1078 - you will need to upload the IRX's from the zip along with the elf to make it work.

Make sure you have the config file done up with your proper IP too, although Im sure you already know that since it did upload.

Hope that helps, hello world worked for me, all it really does is echo "Hello world" back through to ps2link, the screen if you include debug.h and the debug lib (if you look for one of my other posts on this you can download the source to an updated version I did that compiled from the getgo) and the sio cable.

Thx all for promt reply !
Modded PS2, dont use PS2Link, use Naplink instead but the problem didn't come from Naplink. My problem is that I have tried to launch the Hello example of PS2SDK from LaunchELF 3.33 at the location mc0:\MyApp\HELLO.ELF but totally failed, it's freezed. It's work fine on Naplink.

the execution isn't failed and crashed like you think simply it doesn't show anything to tv and without ps2link you can't read what printf does

#include <tamtypes.h>
#include <sifcmd.h>
#include <kernel.h>
#include <sifrpc.h>
#include "sio.h"

int main()
{
SifInitRpc(0);
//see there you commented the only thing that will show up on screen
//you need to uncomment them to see something with launchelf launching it
/*
init_scr();
scr_printf("Hello, world!\n"); // hello world in the screen
*/
printf("Hello, world!\n");
nprintf("Hello, again, from Naplink RPC!\n");

sio_init(115200, 0, 0, 0, 0);
sio_printf("Hello from EE SIO!\n");

/* Return to the bootloader or PS2 browser. */
SleepThread();
}
