I formatted the hard drive (I didn't back it up I don't really need to and I'm putting in a new hdd anyway) I did install other os and within a few seconds that was done then changed settings so ps3 boots with other os. Linux comes on with all that text and has kboot: at the bottom. What do I do? I thought it automatically goes into some text mode thing... is this the text mode? What do I do from here haha ahhhh
Okay - here's how the YDL 6.0 installer works.
First - although this seems obvious it bears repeating - you have to have the YDL DVD in the drive throughout the entire procedure. (i.e. when you boot the other OS) Install other OS doesn't actually install Linux - it only installs the Linux bootloader.
Okay - next read thru this document:
http://www.terrasoftsolutions.com/suppo ... _guide.pdfNOTE: When you get to the kboot section, it's not quite clear how that works. Basically, you use the TAB key at the kboot: prompt to select the install mode. Use either
install_ps3_480i or
install_text, depending on your TV. These options should appear when you TAB thru them.
I know you're using PAL - I'm hoping there's some kind of "install_576i" option.
Cheers,
Paul
(Edited above line - forgot it's install_ps3_480i, not install_480i)
