It won't work. The hypervisor - which is needed to boot Linux on the PS3 - also prevents access to the encrypted keys of the internal drive. This applies to Blu-ray and DVDs.

This would affect all PS3 Linuxes - not just YDL.

See this thread for more info:

Here is a way that you may play BD-VIDEO on your PS3,but need a external BD drive.

That method may not work for BD-Video - only for DVD. Anyone tried it for sure?
