I personally have not tried this myself but according to a few sources it does work. At this rate we might see a serious competitor to the iXtreme firmware on the Xbox 360 with the beginning being the PS3 Backups.
To make PS3 backups you must download the PS3 Backup Tool 1.1 which can be found here.
The Playstation 3 tool automatically copies your system backup, while also copying and renaming the .pkg file which is required and goes on to copy the files in the correct order to get the Corrupt icon on your ps3. This is a super simplified process.
