It seems graf_chokolo isn't the only one thinking about releasing dual boot custom firmware. Kmeaw, known for his popular custom firmwares and lv2 patcher, is planning his very own dual boot CFW. His idea is to have a custom firmware that allows you to switch between official and hacked/modded CFW. Many users have been waiting for something like this, but time will tell how it shapes up.

I was thinking of a CFW that has bootOS integrated so it gets executed
when you power on your PS3 (and switches back to GameOS on user’s
request via menu or ssh). It’s not hard to make it. But recently I
read graf’s announcment that he is going to accomplish the same task.
So I don’t know, if such CFW from me would get any demand.

Also I got bootos-installer and lv2patcher patches from an anonymous
hacker who have added 3.15/3.41 support. I’m going to merge them into
my code and release the next version.

If you have any ideas about what would you like to have, please tell
me.

There you go. If you got any ideas (other than 3.60 CFW!) you would like to forward to kmeaw, you can just leave it here. I will pick the good ones for kmeaw to look into.

In the meantime, you might want to check out graf_chokolo’s tools for dual boot PS3 Linux on ps3crunch's hosted git provided that you are not aware of those new updates and did not want to wait for the actual noob-proof CFW release from graf himself.

htis isn't really a new cfw its just adding features to an existing one like you say. I just hope the PSN games still work cuz i was finally starting to win lobbies in warhawk and then i couldn't sign on anymore. i was just startin to master the 180 degree grenade throw
edit:sorry i was mislead by the title if this just dual boots linux and 3.55

I'm tired of hearing things about 'tuning' up the 3.55, or adding new features. But I guess this goes for all.

Own two consoles, one with 3.55 CFW, so you can do what you want to do, giving Sony doesn't approve that you OWN IT. And another for online play, and legit play. Although legit play has become a nuissance, and I forgot how all the fags camp on MW2, and jerk off in the corners.

Once this gets relased someone PM me and tell me to move it back to the Playstation 3 Exploits and Hacks section.
