BootMenu is a GRUB-like menu allowing to automatically bootstrap any baremetal payload and, in turn, Linux, right after the PS Vita boots.

Recommended for Ensō users only.

Installation

VitaLinux build instructions here.

To install the plugin, place BootMenu.skprx on your Memory Card (ux0:linux/BootMenu.skprx) or your internal storage (ur0:tai/BootMenu.skprx).

Then add it to your taiHEN config.txt, in the *KERNEL section

#For internal memory
*KERNEL
ur0:tai/BootMenu.skprx

#For memory card
*KERNEL
ux0:linux/BootMenu.skrpx

Place the baremetal payload at ux0:linux/payload.bin.

Place the Linux zImage and dtb at the location the baremetal payload expects.

Optional: Can load a background image located at ur0:tai/BootMenu.bmp. Create it with Paint, save as 24bit BMP.

Controls

PS Vita users:

D-Pad Up/Down - Navigate the menu

Circle/Cross - Choose an option

PS TV users:

Hold Triangle/POWER after the PS logo appears - Skip the plugin entirely

POWER - Abort the countdown and boot the PS Vita OS

(The POWER functionality is not tested, so it might actually not work. It is recommended placing the plugin on the memory card in case it doesn't work.)
