If you now press circle for the last time, the PS2 elf file (as example FREEMCBoot.ELF) will be executed.

Now swap the original disk with your 'launch disk', press X again and after a short while the screen will turn black and a little menu will appear. Now press the X Button of the controller and wait until 'use CogSwap' appears on the screen. Leave the original disk in the PS2 slim but remove and pull back the gum-plug of the front sensor for a short while. But because the PS2 slim is special protected you have to do the following: You can see already the cogswap screen but you can't press X yet. Now the Cogswap Screen appears - I used v.1. For a third time the little game: Put again back the 'cogswap disk' when the laser moves back to look for the data and swap it with the original disk when it returns near the inner circle of the disk. Now just wait for the right moment until the laser wants to go back, checking a third time the PS2 protection ($ony, how paranoid, and it's circumvented neverthless.), so swap in the original. CD a second time with your 'cogswap disk'. You mastered the complicated part, Congratulation! Now the laser again searchs for the boot file data, so swap the orig.

When the laser's going back to the inner side, swap it back to the original disk so it can read the protection code from the lead-in for a second time. Simple stop the CD for a short while or lift it up and put it back immediatly. Now it's important you interrupt the reading of that file for short, so the laser can't move back inside without any break. Exactly at the moment the laser moves back (to the outside of the disk), wanna reading the bootfile, swap it with the 'cogswap disk'. If you use DVD-Rom you can see the laser through the surface. Insert the original disk and power on - watch the laser. Use for the one near the on-off button a little plug of gum which sticks good in the little hole, but you also can pull it out easily.

Burn the Iso with lower speed for better reading quality, use DVD-R or CD-R the same as the original disk is.
