Set "Blu-Ray Disc Access" to "BD-Emulator (USB)", set "Boot Mode" to "System Software Mode" and make a working BD Emulator drive on a pendrive. Install a small game to it (doesn't matter what the game is, it just needs to be a valid drive that the PS3 recognizes and mounts on the XMB. I used Fallout3 ~7GB) Boot Multiman and load a game as usual. It replaces the BD-Emulator icon with the game you selected, and the game should boot fine without a BD disc inserted!
@svenmullet thanx for the important info!

the thing i did not understand was this part "make a working BD Emulator drive on a pendrive" but i figured it out:

you have to use ps3gen to generate a valid ps3 image of a game.

so i downloaded PS3GEN 3.30 and used kung fu panda 2(BLUS-30634) to create the image.

these are my ps3gen settings:











if you click on build and get err_no=00052100 this probably means that your image(game) is to large for your pendrive

have fun
