1)
most notably, Open PS2 Loader
2)
it uses about 400KB more than a Normal Install
3)
was able to format a separate Memory Card and install the updated Free MCBoot to it, reboot into that, and then install the updated version to the original Memory Card
4)
requires a PS2 with an Ethernet port; Phats don't have one by-default but Slims do
5)
never tried it; apparently Slims have slower USB ports
6)
notably Xtreme Legends of Dynasty/Samurai Warriors; TODO: Look more into this
