Dimebag Darrell · 07-07-2009, 08:51 PM

im just curious cuz i was seriously thinkin about doin it just to try it out and shit... i got a 26' hdtv so(

)... but i was unsure about doin it by myself without any xp with linux or modding game systems and all

any advise, experience with it, etc would be nice

wtf? how did I get to become the linux expert here?

all I know is you have to download yellow dog linux from their website, burn it to a dvd, partition the ps3's hdd to allow another OS, and install it to the ps3. details? i have none. experience? i have none. foot for you and crowns asses? i have 2

Dimebag Darrell · 07-24-2009, 08:07 PM

ok... so i put yellow dog linux on my ps3 , but tbh it def isnt worth it cuz u have to update it, without internet and u have to know linux coding to do it, unless u have another comp of course .. and overall its a lot of frustration and hard work for no reason lol.. so now im stuck bored again and i beat littlebigplanet's storymode and now im just stuck playin online tryna get trophies for now... but i want another good game like infamous and i might be gettin assassins creed on monday lol

yea haha, it has a pretty strong wireless card tbh too

i have my ps3 set up prolly like 50 feet away from my router, through other rooms and all, and it works basically flawlessly

except, u have to like set shit up in the linux for it to use that wireless card and its just really frustrating if u dont have any xp with linux

i left off in japan or something, shit got too hard for me to actually put effort into it

If u use the linux forums they will help you alot, and you cud jus google shyt you cant figure out
