Would it be possible to make your own boot/swap disc?
NOPE......
The information that the PS2 uses to determine if its a Original or a Copy is in the pre-groove area of the disc....
There is not a burner available that can replicate this information.. Because that info is not "written" to the disc, it is "pressed" on the disc when manufactured.....
This is the reason a mod chip is needed.... It "fools" the PS2 into thinking that you have inserted a Original instead of a Copy..

Then what do those boot discs do? Isn't there some modchips that use something like that? :o
I guess the only boot disc you could make would require the original press copy of the game, at which point you'd just make the game itself.
Take a look at the boot procedure post.... You can go to it HERE! (http://www.fileforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=38232)
That will give you a idea of how they work...
NOTE: Even with the boot discs, you still have to have a mod chip..
