Multi Password Boot Protector v1.0

I just made an app. called Multi Password Boot Protector (v1.0)

I ONLY TESTED THIS ON 3.03 OE!!!

This app makes it so you need a special Memory Stick to turn on your PSP.
Your MS will contain as many passwords as you like and they will have to be found by your PSP as it boots, or the PSP will never start.

If it starts, your PSP will display a custom pic.
There is no way around this boot protector unless somebody has the same passwords on their memory stick.

The passwords are not located in files.
They are located by folder names.
Here is the Lua code as an example:

Code:
background = Image.load("../../../../SYSTEM/BROWSER/pass1/pass2.jpg")
while true do
screen:blit(0,0,background)
screen.flip()
screen.waitVblankStart(100)
os.exit()
end
What this does is tell the PSP simply to open a picture.
But you can tell it to open a pic in any folder you want.
The folders can be named anything...

This is very hard to explain, but once you download it, it will see much easier once you see the system.lua and index.lua files.

The files and folders are hidden, so you have to show them.

There is an optional step to write to the flash for extra security.
Open the file flash0:/vsh/module/vshmain.prx

Edit the line ms0:/PSP/GAME/BOOT/EBOOT.PBP to wherever you want the boot folder to be. I just changed the name of the BOOT folder to something else (4 char.).
