no bud, its just a small custom firmware using some files from the debug unit, nothing more you will still have to use jaicrab usb firm loader, and everything will boot from usb, that is if you have 3.41 dev flash from a debug unit.

This only proves that you can change the firmware and it's a step closer to CFW...

Hmmm, it's really not related to CustomFirmware ... more of how to install debug firmware on your retail console ...

which already worked with old 2.x firmwares years ago, as you might remember:
http://www.ps3hax.net/showthread.php?t=4808

It was basicly the same ... files got replaced by swapping HDD's but it didn't help very much and it never turned your console into a full debug unit and most of the debug-stuff was not even working there. Also downgrading FW did not work on retail units with debug-firmware installed, like it should be possible with real debug units. You could only upgrade your old retail-fw to a newer debug-fw. Sony fixed that later so debug-fw could not get installed anymore on retail units. NOW it's back :-)

Even if it's a nice research, it was done already 2 years ago and did not help very much except unlocking a few extra menu entries and features, that are basicly useless for us. They also tried to run unsigned PKG's with that years ago but they failed. Anyway, 2 years later we are a few steps closer, but I doubt this here will help us.

one of the features of the Dev firmware is the ability to rollback firmware updates so it may be possible to add that into this so anyone on 3.41 could rollback to 3.15 to re-enable OtherOS seeing as 3.15 is now JB compatible for some Im not bothered about online play as i have another ps thats not JB i just wanna have a box that i can play with and use for what i want to use it for not what the manufacturer says i have to use it for (going away for a few days i can now take my console and not have to pack a suitcase full of games as well so screw you sony).

Mathieulh already said about dev_flash.
http://psx-scene.com/forums/551152-post10.html
You can replace files on dev_flash. But, it dangerous for your HDD.

But someone must make payload form dev_flash remounting with RW.
It is real and simple (you all saw faked PSP emulator) and someone already do it.

PS: SKFU don't write anything about allow to run unsigned code.
May be someone who has access for his twitter ask him about worked Debug functions?

But it should be released carefully to people with knowledge about what they are doing and who don't care to buy a new console because you can easily brick your console permanently
