Quick overview of installation.
It took about one hour to install it on PS3. Skipped parts of keyboard selection, time zone , etc.

Its very easy to install even for lame user like me :-)

  • k so i just want to stop trying to install but i cant get back to the ps3 menu all it does is boot into the ubuntu

  • Just hold power button for 5 seconds , when you are turning on your PS3, until you hear double beep. Original XMB will be loaded then.

  • do i need a keyboard

  • Any USB Keyboard should be OK

  • It's really a pity to not being able to take advantage of the power of sony PS3 as in terms of number crunching or as a super graphic workstation.

    Sony should issue their own linux in native code. They 'll make many happy people for sure.

  • As it was stated on and on by others, installing and running linux on a PS3 is always in emulation mode. That means it's far from interesting to do so regarding the performance degradation due to the emulation overhead. A "simple" dual-core PC is far much responsive and you could achieve your installation in less than 15 minutes.

    Well if you had enough time to waste in experimenting linux on a PS3 give fedora distro a try. Red hat is a far cry from any ubuntu, well IMHO.

  • you'd rather learn english...there's pretty huge amount of materials in english for anything., you definitely should.

  • You can find instructions how to install ubuntu on psubuntu website

  • bei mir klappt das nicht :-(

    ich habe immer Fehlermeldung bei der Alternate Version und bei der Desktop Live version.

    das einzige was bei mir geht ist Ubuntu 7.10 Desktop Live :(
