no not the payloads, but from what i read they need at least one valid FIRM partition to pass bootup leaving firm0 corrupt to get their payload setup, agian i am nowhere near fully understanding exactly how all that black magic works its just how i had interpreted stuff, i could potentially be way off the mark and full of crap XD
Ok so you are refering to the FIRM1 partition used to garbage-jump into stage1. In that case it wouldn't matter since as the name implies, that partition is decrypted into (useful) garbage. OTP is already locked before a9lh arrives anyway, so it doesn't matter to what config you might change.
What it's possible but not worthy in time and profit is the boot of 2.1 emunands, though.
