I'm not sure i'm too keen on this actually. Seems more like a permanent RAM modification than a real flashed firmware.
Nope, it's a real flashed firmware, replaces vsh_main and everything. Even the temporary version flashes additional PRXs. Previously it was like Gen-C, and now is has the permanent option. It's got the option to boot into OFW (which is nice), it's got a recovery menu with common options, plugin support, supports more 5.x plugins than I thought it would (and has built-in functions of some of them so I'm now using less plugins than I was before), the works. Fuck, it's even permanent for earlier 3K models (and the readme mentions the Go, but I don't know if it works on that or that was another note).
Myself, I've switched and I'm waiting to see if anybody gets POPSloader working before I update the guides to focus on this firmware, since the older ones are dead.
Of course, I don't know if ANYTHING will ever be enough for M33 users to switch.
