It's now possible to play games requiring firmware version superior to the one of the console, without any patches.
Like playing a 3.42 game (Medal of Honnor) on a PS3 fw3.41.
or playing a game requiring fw3.41 (Mafia2) on a PS3 fw3.01.
it only needs the latest payload (KaKaRoTo's PL3 from 2010-10-23) and Gaia Manager 1.02 or OM2.1g
I thought it could be useful to add this info to the FAQ for people keeping OtherOS.
(for example : Q. do I need to update to 3.41 ? A. no, 3.01 can play newer games, etc.)
And the FAQ still ask to update to 3.41, you can change to 3.01, 3.10, 3.15 and 3.41
