More PS3 Linux! Linux via AsbestOS on CFW 3.55!


Submitted by greg; February 05, 2011


What happens when you mix marcan's [early version of] AsbestOS with kmeaw's LV2 v9 patcher? You get Linux on PS3 CFW 3.55! Mind you the installation process isn't for the faint-hearted; you gotta be up on your Linux game to know what's what here.
Marcan's Guide to Running Gentoo Linux on PS3
This guide assumes you're familiar with Linux and understand your way around command line. If that isn't you and you still want Linux on your PS3, then I suggest you wait for a less technical means of installing+booting AsbestOS and Linux. Graf's method may prove easier when it is released.
ubuntu-desktop% sudo apt-get install dhcp3-server tftpd-hpa nfs-kernel-server 
 
 http://marcansoft.com/transf/gentoo-ps3-20101020.tar.bz2 = rootfs 
 http://www.multiupload.com/E8IQAO2PB3 = kernel image and modules 
 
 extract rootfs into /mnt/experimental: 
 % sudo mkdir -p /mnt/experimental 
 % sudo tar -C /mnt/experimental -xvpf /path/to/gentoo-ps3-20101020.tar.bz2 
 
 then copy 2.6.36-rc7-01073-g47a9595-dirty from ps3linux.tar.gz into /mnt/experimental/lib/modules. 
 
 Set up the DHCP server. Put this in /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf: 
 
 option domain-name "example.org"; 
 option domain-name-servers 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4; 
 default-lease-time 600; 
 max-lease-time 7200; 
 ddns-update-style none; 
 authoritative; 
 log-facility local7; 
 subnet 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { 
 range 192.168.2.128 192.168.2.250; 
 } 
 next-server 192.168.2.1; 
 filename "kboot.conf"; 
 option routers 192.168.2.1; 
 
 Set up your wired network interface (eth0) to have a static IP address "192.168.2.1". 
 
 Copy vmlinux file into /var/lib/tftpboot. 
 
 add this line to /etc/exports (requires root privs): 
 
 /mnt/experimental 192.168.0.0/16(rw,async,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,anonuid=0,anongid=0) 
 
 Then everything is done. Let's start up the services: 
 
 % sudo service tftpd-hpa restart 
 % sudo service dhcp3-server restart 
 % sudo service nfs-kernel-server restart 
 
 Create a kboot.conf file in /var/lib/tftpboot with this line inside: 
 
 linux='vmlinux video=ps3fb:mode:2 root=/dev/nfs rw ip=dhcp nfsroot=192.168.2.1:/mnt/experimental panic=5' 
 
 That's all. Run Linux from lv2patcher v9 and see if it boots.

Working for me in 320 Gig PS3 Slim on 3.55 kmeav. :):) whic

@greg, there is a small mistake in the instructions

It should be "That's all. Run the AsbestOs installer and then Linux from lv2patcher v9 and see if it boots." I was pulling my hair out, until I realized I had to download the installer as well.

Having a few delays in boot, while mounting network file system, which takes 1 min and fails, but still can reach to the login area.

Cant get it to work. It goes to XMB with a message that i turned off the ps3 via powerswitch blabla..........

Well i set everything up and also tested the tftp server from my laptop to see if i can get my test file. That worked. So i dont know why my ps3 turns back to xmb since everything is working fine. And i got a static ip address as it stated on the tutorial.

To make it easy for new linux users I've made a simple script to do everything, including extracting, copying files and folders. The only thing you've to do manually is setting up a connection with your PS3 which is relatively very easy and is described in the README with screenshots.

# elliwigy 2011-02-06 17:51
Yes it is possible.. I believe through linux you could install emulators for more concoles if the linux has full support for the ps3's hardware.. also, you could boo into either linux or game os to play ps3 games like normal, or linux which is tons better for multmedia. It plays more video formats and basically functions more like a pc

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

If you know the history of WHY they lock the extra spu. You would not attempt without the factory tools to label the 'defective' spu.
Short version, money, Sony and Cell group use the defective Cells for PS3 since a game crash is not as bad a pricey company Cell based server crash. There are defective chips all the time, spu are tested and thoses with 1 or 2 defective spus can still be sold. Based on the location on the spu ring 2 can be bad and skipped. The software number is a count for the generic hypervisor
Code not to release defective spu if it is unlinked at factory.

Body building can be intense and if you’re body is not fit enough, it could post a threat to your health. If you want to try body-building, learn everything you can about it and decide on the appropriate program for you.

You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and extremely broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!

OK so all of you who dont have ubuntu and dont know how to fix the server..you can use linux and do it through a USB stick


1. install AsbestOS installer v1 or higher
2. partition a USB disk to have at least one partition (FAT-formatted);
3. unpack linux.img (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=W... or http://www.multiupload.com/CTG... and put it into the root dir of usb disk;
4. run AsbestOS installer;
5. install lv2 patcher v9 or higher
6. attach an ethernet cable, connected to a network with a dhcp-server (just for the initial boot, it can be a SOHO router - just anything with DHCP);(NO LONGER NECESSARY IN ASBESTOS 1.2+)
7. run lv2 patcher and select "Linux";
8. as you see the fb console with penguins, you can unplug the ethernet cable;(NO LONGER NECESSARY IN ASBESTOS 1.2+)
9. login: ps3, password: ps3.

If you don't see anything, press Ctrl-Alt-F1, then Alt-F7.
so just follow these steps..btw you need a USB stick thats atleast bigger than 1gb so 2gb should work

When I firstly saw your web, I've been around in many pages that I'll use to get my final assignment. I googling with my short idea in my brain, and then I met with useful article. I hope you can give several advices to me, because your knowledge is great, it can help many students to get great score in every task or project. If you don't mind, I will contact you to make short discussion for my project. I write my short comment for you to give support for your site; my friends had used your article as reference in specific term and condition. After that, my friends are satisfied with your article (I've given reference to read many pages in your site). We can make other discussion later, because it will be worth to me. Thanks in advance, hope you contact me, so we can broaden our knowledge together.

Surprising time in here; I forget to do my other activity because of your wonderful site. It doesn't matter with me, because it is worthed and I will learn new knowledge, hope progressively I can meet with your speech. Linguists and educationalists (in my school) had conflicted and debated in several subject, I got the correction when I read the full article here. The positive effects of debatable discussion in my school are great brain for future time (for me and for my friends). Many subjects and topics with great confusing material in my school, but I have initiation step that your site has better correct conclusion. The above discussion in Linguists and educationalists is great. I've used several techniques for my research, for example online comparison. Would you mind if I make citation for my future project? (Of course I will tell you later, once I got the project plan in my hand). Thanks for your attention in reading my comments; you can shot me in my comment details to execute this project, so you can to be as a great part in my project.

For instance, after I launch Dissidia and get to the start menu and choose to load a save file, I'm inclined to push X to select the save file, but that cancels the load operation instead and have to use O in place. If I choose to hit 'home' and load back into the XMB, it requires that I use O to select that. But as soon as I get back to the XMB, it reverts back to the normal configuration.
