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.

OFW 3.60?
Or OFW 3.55?
One of them is pointless.

Do a barrel roll!
Wouldn't Sony be able to circumvent this? Couldn't they just make their newer firmware format the flash where this dual boot loader would need to be stored?

I mean I think it'd be awesome to implement, but I would be very wary of new official firmware that came out afterwards.

It would be a great solution to those currently on CFW who want to play on PSN without jumping through flaming hoops to do so.
