sceKernelLoadExec("disc0:/PSP_GAME/SYSDIR/EBOOT.BIN", NULL);

Should work just fine in user mode, since it's an encrypted module.

You can only start the UMD using Boot.bin in user mode. Don't ask me why ;) . You can however use the sceKernelLoadExecVshDisc (or what it's called, I'm not at my comp as we speak) to load the eboot.bin but that it's only in kernel mode.

Weird, so if we could actually write our own UMDs, we could run code, since BOOT.BIN is decrypted...
