YDL/PS3 Installation Problems (SOLVED)

Postby astrodaddy » 17 Jan 2010, 06:58

Hello, I am trying (so far in vain) to install YDL 6.2 as a second OS on my 80 Gb Phat PS3. After my third install attempt, I am here seeking advice.

I have followed the Adobe PDF install instructions to a tee (twice), but after rebooting, my PS3 simply hangs and does nothing else. So far on my TV I am seeing a paragraph of code regarding "Call Trace:" errors and nothing else. Maybe someone here can help me out?

This is my first foray into Linux, so please be gentle!

UPDATE: After some searching...... http://www.yellowdog-board.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=7022#p35677

Some users have reported problems using certain keyboards. What keyboard are you using? Also, be sure to unplug any other USB devices/hubs besides a mouse.

Unplugging my usb hub and connecting my keyboard and mouse straight to my ps3 solved my problems!

THANKS BILLB
