How to Get eBoot to Work for the PSP

The Sony PSP is a capable mobile gaming platform that can also play classic PSone games. When the PSone game is converted into a PSP eboot file, a "keys.bin" file is also created. Both of these files are necessary to have when playing the eboot file on the PSP. To get the eboot to work, you need to save the eboot and keys file in the proper folder on the PSP memory stick.
