* If you are booting the Tonyhax International [Boot CD](boot-cd.md), you'll want to remove the spring or whatever you have blocking down the lid sensor to "open" the CD drive and stop the disc from spinning, allowing you to remove the Boot CD from the console's CD drive (PS1) or DVD drive (PS2).

* If you are booting Tonyhax International via a [Save Game Exploit](save-game-exploit.md), after ejecting the DVD drive (PS2) or opening the CD drive (PS1) the real PS1 game disc you used with a save game exploit will stop spinning, allowing you to remove it from the console's CD drive (PS1) or DVD drive (PS2).

All other boot methods don't have a disc usually in the drive already, so there is no disc to remove. With no disc currently in your console, you can now put in the backup CD-R or import PSX game disc you want to play. Close the CD drive (PS1) or DVD drive (PS2). The console will detect that the drive has been closed and will spin up your disc. The console will then send some commands and boot the disc.

## General Notes:

* As of right now to store the loader on the memory card is only taking up 2 slots (1 linked slot)! Incredible, considering the original Tonyhax is also taking up the same (due to no compression teqnique in the original). In the future if the compressed size gets above the capacity of 2 slots, more slots can be added easily by changing to a larger template `-tpl.mcs` file, I've already created them for when compression was not used before.

* A 'gotcha!' to look out for is in the anti-piracy bypass system. Some bootfile matches are expecting the PS-EXE to always already be loaded at the time of `activate_anti_anti_piracy()` being called in order to do revision detection. This won't happen if the PS-EXE overlaps the tonyhax executable running... Revision detection is looking at the first different byte between revisions to determine what version the game is, since they share the same boot file name. As of right now no conflicts have occured, as in every game needing revision detection that also contain some bypassed anti-piracy are being loaded fully into user ram (via `exec()` codepath), fitting nicely without conflict and no need of `loadandexec()` to load and exec in place over any of the actual tonyhax executable (which is always in the highest possible RAM location according to layout provision). Whenever this (if ever) leads to a conflict, I'll need to write a function to partially load the exe to a size that still allows revision detection to some temp buffer. Any conflict could occur first for the Final Fantasy 9 exploit since you get slightly less user ram to work with.

Final Fantasy IX's save game exploits require a different load address then all other games and boot methods available in Tonyhax International. The standard 0x801F6200 can not be used to start the Tonyhax International loader from the Final Fantasy IX save game exploit, so a different address is specifically used: 0x801F4380.
