ok i got pissed off at no help so i just hacked it myself.
what you need:
1. PStwo system
2. Swap magic cd version 3.2 and DvD v2.0 disks
3. Duck tape, or anything like that.
4. A small screw driver.
Step one
Open the PStwo (this does void the warrantee). There are 6 screws located inder the square pads at the bottom. Unscrewthem and break the black seal at the back of the ps2. The cover then snaps off easy.
Step 2
Locate the the 2 objests that tell the ps2 the fip cover is closed (i call them tabs). These are little square boxes with piece of plastic sticking out that are is on a spring mechanizm (these tabs are very small). You know you found them when when you can touch the top and a piece of plastic moves in and out. Tab # 1 is located right behind the reset button and is easy to see. You can even see that tab #1 when the full cover is on the ps2 and the tray is open. The second tab (which is brown or tan colour on my ps2) is located right becide the LAN ethernet port and is directly infront of the warrantee seal. Its pretty easy to see because its sitting there all alone at the bottom of the ps2.
Step 3.
Cut super small squares of tape and place it ontop of the tabs to make the little plastic deeley stay down. That is all you have to do. Just make the plastic spring thing stay down. It was pretty easy to do, and I made sure not to put tape on the green motherboard just incase. Make sure you tape both tabs down and they stay down.
Step 4.
Place the cover pack on and screw the screws back in.
DONE, the easy hacking part.
Step 5.
place the swap magic dvd into the ps2 let it boot up then all you have to do it take out the disk and put in your backup dvd then close the lid and hit X. I have GT3 on a memorex DVD+R and it worked right away.
Sorry for any typos or the vague discription of the tabs (i did this super fast). They are pretty easy to find and if somone could post my pic i have them circled so you can easily identify them
Have fun.
