what is better Ubuntu Linux 8.10 or yellow dog linux 6.1

[rootinza11]

they both have pros and cons, i prefer Ubuntu because it has some great features such as start up sound, bluetooth file exchange, and its easier to use emulators and six axis with. but yellow dog i have currently installed on my ps3, because more people are interested in it and ask questions, yellow dog has some good software and easy to install.

What kind of disc do u use

@Eggleburt i realize that now... realize how my comment was a year ago...

[Eggleburt]

@metallicafan928 First of all, this isn't hacking, because it's officially supported by Linux and Sony. Secondly, Linux is just an operating system, like windows or mac os.

@ShazzyKhany you mean "what" does linux do? - Anyway, Linux is better described as an Open Source version of the Unix operating system.

Why would you want it on your PS3?

Because it adds a whole boatload of functionality that it didn't have before and pretty much turns it into a personal computer much like a PC or a Mac and, more importantly to some, gives you access to a LOT of open source and free software and the ability to write your own.

[ItachiAli1993]

Can you still switch to ps3 format so you can play your games"?

[maw88ify]

@ShazzyKhany Linux is a kernel... it is at the core of all Linux OS...

What is an OS?

Well an OS is an operating system like Windows, or Mac...

Linux however is free, and there are 1,000 of Linux distributions ...

Linux Ubuntu, Linux Mint , Fedora, openSUSE, Debian, Puppy, Gentoo ...

So with Linux on a PS3 you could do lots of stuff just Like you could on your computer ... but there isn't a point seeing how you could just as easy install Linux on your PC...

i cant install linux on my ps3 i have the newest version of 3.21 software

and wat does linux do

[metallicafan928]

im new to hacking the ps3, so what does this do?

[18CaStRaDoMiS89]

So each time you want to install another version of Linux do you have to wipe the HDD all over again?
