Unstead of burning CDs, you can copy your homebrews to a USB pen since swap magic has acces to the USB port of the PS2.

Do you have a network adapter or are using a slim?
You could do what most everyone else does, and burn one CD, and have that boot ps2link. Then you just send you application over ethernet for each boot. Saves mucking around with CDs or USB keys and stuff...

I dont have my modem anymore. How can the swap have USB access? What is the best usb pen to use for a ps2 fat?

The best way to find this is try for yourself some pens or do some searching - I bet there is a list somewhere of the compatible USB pens (try psx-scene forums, there could be something there with luck).
Not all usb pens are compatible with the PS2... And some don't work well with all applications : my Dane Elec 1GB works fine with most homebrew (like uLaunchELF and SMS) but Swap Magic don't recognize it as a USB pen, so I could never boot from it using swap magic.
