Or does anyone know of a different way to boot into linux without using a game can a movie or dvd file or another bootable media be patched to do it?

like already stated, no it is not possible

the shaders on the demo are signed, where as they are not signed on the actual game (which always for code to be inserted and run. it will not work of anything else, the game has a mediaflag that will allow it to only boot via the DVD drive, and the game is needed due to the unsigned shaders that allow code to be inserted to use the exploit found in the kernel.

someone was trying to have linux as well as the king kong exploit on the same disc so you wouldnt have to do the hotswap, but IIRC, it wasnt a success as the game would always fail to boot

the single dual layer bootdisc works..(sda loader + kingkong)


the linux live image + king kong 'fails'.. because of a protection in the DVD firmware.. we're only able to read 7 mb of the beginning of the dvd..
