This page covers kbooti.bin (Kernel Boot Init) which is nothing more than the PSP's [[IPL]] with an encrypted pre-IPL at the beginning.

Every now and then, kbooti.bin is accidentally included in a UMD game. This was more common prior to SDK 1.0.0 when kbooti was stored inside the kmodule folder. Developers would often copy the entire module folders to the game without thinking. Once 1.0.0 moved it into the bin folder though, few have leaked since. It should be noted that nearly all launch games were made before 1.00 and they simply copied over newer modules, but modules that didn't get replaced stayed the old version. Below is a list of games that have leaked them as well as the version leaked.
