ps3 firmware 3.42 DONT UPDATE.

DO NOT upgrade to 3.42 if you wish to jailbreak your ps3 it isnt supported. Im sticking at 3.41 and recommend you all do the same you can bypass PSN firmware detection by entering 67.202.81.137 into your primary DNS under internet settings ( so you can still play online with 3.41 without updating your console).
