To quote, roughly translated: Create 4.xx XMB BOOT Packages
1. Install multiMAN and lastGAME pkg
2. Mount game with multiMAN (no BD mirror) - Game should be mounted in lastGAME app
3. Copy content (dev_hdd0/game/BLES80610)
4. Make a 3.55 mount pkg (xmbgameloader)
5. Replace EBOOT.BIN and LASTPLAY.BIN (from BLES80610)
6. Compile the new pkg (_makepkg_hdd.bat/pkg_npdrm.exe)

• Restart console and mount game with pkg
• Start game without multiMAN (you can delete lastGAME app)

Example:

• Install Mount Package files, insert a original game, mount it and run the disc!
• May have problems with memory stalls occur, maybe game data have to reinstall, not work all games!

Finally, from deank on lastGAME's versatility: lastGAME application gives the moders a lot of freedom:

1) It loads Hermes payload (for firmwares 3.41, 3.55, 4.21, 4.30)
2) It can be repacked with any game ID
3) A text based configuration (lastplay.bin) in its folder allows you to configure a game to mount/load
4) You can repack lastGAME with custom LASTPLAY.BIN file to mount any game

lastGAME is a basic multiMAN add-on for almost two years.

LASTPLAY.BIN supports parameters for "Direct Boot", "Regular Load/Mount", network or local load of ps1/ps2/psp backups.

SELF=<path to eboot.bin/.self>
PATH=<path of game folder>
USBP=0 or 1 (for 3.41 usb patch mode)
BOOT=0 or 2 (0 = normal load; 2 = direct boot on 3.55)
BOOT=1 (1 = for direct boot on 3.41)
TITLEID=BLES12345 (title ID of the game)
TYPE=1 for local games (1=PS3 game, 2=AVCHD/BD, other values for BDMOVIE/DVDMOVIE/PS 3ISO/PS2ISO/PSPISO/PSXISO)
HOST=IP_ADDRESS (for network ISO via net_host)
PORT=PORT (for network ISO via net_host)

Examples :
SELF=/dev_hdd0/GAMES/TEST_GAME/PS3_GAME/USRDIR/EBOOT.BIN
PATH=/dev_hdd0/GAMES/TEST_GAME
USBP=0
BOOT=0
TITLEID=BLES12345
