Fedora core 5 on PS3

[thopzeren]

somebody who knows how to get the installation file transfered to the ps3? :)

[silvalite5]

burn it to dvd

then put into ps3.

then system settings-install other os

[dton47]

this will enable Ps3 to play PC Games such as Halo LOL b/c linux has a program for that

[kingkong445]

that shit is so sweet, it puts 360 to shame, but everybody think 360 is better tho

[bboston7]

I know, it is sad. People never take into account that the ps3 is much more than just a game console.

[kingkong445]

yeah couz i know that shit is stright cold 2 death, 360 just sucks

[veilx]

ahh man, no 1 like a hater... but its true, the just hve more games...

[kingkong445]

yea i kno right

[Followingalegend]

@bboston7 the ps3 is a multimedia system ^-^

[jamesgmr]

when yu put linux on yur playstation does it wipe everything of like saved games and that

[bboston7]

yeah, but you can back them up first

[jamesgmr]

does the linux wipe everything from your ps3 like saved game and that

[bboston7]

I have updated the video info to show what site I learned how to do this from. Go to the home page to translate into english.

[yunasprotege]

k so i just need to type in those things near the end in bold white letters and it should work?

[bboston7]

boot-game-os - takes you back into the main Playstation 3 OS (you will need to change the boot order under system settings after doing this to boot back into Linux next time you wish to do so)

[yunasprotege]

whyat do you mean

[yunasprotege]

yo i connected it and everything now it justsais no internet device found, has this happened to you? if it has tell me hw to solve it

[bboston7]

Yes, I can't get it to work. What I do is download stuff onto my mac, put it on my thumb drive, then transfer that to my PS3. Sorry I can't help more. :-(

[yunasprotege]

Alright thanks man, but keep me posted if you ever find out

[yunasprotege]

oh yeah and for some reason my Fedora core looks different but I guess that doesnt really matter

[yunasprotege]

I really need your help, I've quick instaled the fedora core 5 on my ps3 but I dont know how to start the actual visual interface, I log in but then I have to type in some command to actually start the visual interface, i've tried typig startx but it doesnt do ANYTHING I NEED YOUR HELP

[bboston7]

did you login as root? What is the maximum resolution of your tv? Did you put in the ps3 cd after installing fedora? If you didn't, you have to uninstall fedora and redo it all.

Sorry i didn't respond to your PM, it wouldn't let me send it.

[yunasprotege]

yeah I redid the entire thing and it works, but What I cant figure out is how to maike my internet connection work on it, ive set it to wired on the XMB but it just cant load anything! help me please, I need the step by step insrtuctions

thanks

[bboston7]

I have never been able to get mine to work, but mine was wireless. I would google it.

[yunasprotege]

I tried googling it but it doesnt really help, but tell me if you find out how to get a wired connection to work, ive tried wireless but that didnt work eithet

[bboston7]

OK, I will research it and get back to you.

[yunasprotege]

Alright thanks man, youre really helping me out here, I need some serious help, I tried everything, and I got linux because I can download most things that i can get on a pc, so once again, thanks

[yunasprotege]

[blade9171]

[uzaku1]

[bboston7]

[lazyaka40cal]

yellow dog linux is the best OS for ps3

[bboston7]

I have heard that yellow dog is good.

[reggie102000]

I used Yellowdog - Wasn't impressed. Going to try Fedora now. Will update when I get it running

[Cyraxkill007]

sorry but what exactly you need to do this?

[bboston7]

A ps3, A DVD with Fedora core 5 on it, a cd with the fedora core 5 ps3 addon, and a memorystick with kboot on it. You also need to partition your hard drive

[Cyraxkill007]

hey bro nice vid and tv but can you explain me how to get back to the ps3 front what did you type to get back?

[bboston7]

you can type boot-game-os
