hello all,
in last november, i wrote script to install several linux distrib' on ps3.
never totaly tested, and never released, i decide to finish it.
there's is function:
-multi language (En, Fr, De, Sp, It)
-many install option (usb/internal hdd, 3.15/3.41/3.55 ps3's version)
-prepare hard drive (format and create_hdd_region.sh)
-install debian base or ubuntu base from debootstrap and glevand's git-kernel's
-unzip pre-installed linux (masterzorag's FC12, mintppc, roadrunner's redribbon, glevand's freebsd, ubuntu, xubuntu)
i was working on a complete linux thème, but last changes crashed the desktop, so i droped this project. (and time is missing).
the total space used by all pre-installed linux version is about 5Go.
the script is separate on 3 files: install.sh, debianbase.sh and ubuntubase.sh
at the moment, i'm missing information about 3.x.x kernel on FAT, and surely need to update the script to compile the kernel responding to the linux version.
i also use pre-compiled kernel (choice to select during the script).
i need to know:
-wich linux distrib can be run on wich ps3 version and with wich kernel ?
-wich git to use for 2.6 or 3.x.x kernel ?
-where have to be to download a SLES version ?
-any help to install suse, sles and gentoo on ps3 ?
-do nevik worked on tiger/leopard (mac) support ?
thanks for all

on the FAT: kernel status
2.6 supports: dispatch-manager, system-manager with old ps3dm-utils, ps3sm-utils,
old ambiguous vflash naming scheme,
wlan and 7th SPU via kernel command line.
tested precompiled 2.6.39-gb9133b3-dirty
3.2 supports: dispatch-manager, system-manager, av-manager with rewritten vuart-tools,
new flash naming scheme,
wlan out-of-the-box, 7th SPU via kernel command line.
tested compiled 3.2.5
major changes on devices access, no loss against 2.6

My precompiled Linux 3 kernels work on both, slims and phats.
But i didn't enable PHAT wlan in my kernels because i don't have
phat wlan.
My old Linux 2 git repo won't be updated by me anymore.
I improved all drivers in Linux 3. Linux 2 PS3 drivers from graf and me were hackish and do not work with 32bit user space e.g.
With improved Linux 3 drivers, you can use all drivers with 32bit user space too, e.g. on petitboot.
ps3physmem.patch has nothing to do with ps3vram module.
If you want to use ps3vram then don't use ps3fb-use-fifo.patch because
ps3vram depends on code in ps3fb driver which is changed by ps3fb-use-fifo.patch.
ps3vram is video ram used as swap space, nothing else, i don't use it because the performance difference is almost zero.
Doesn't make sense to use it for me.
ps3fb-use-fifo.patch patches ps3fb driver and makes it more efficient which is more importnat to me
because i want my display driver to be fast. Furthermore, ps3fb-use-fifo.patch allows you to use 3D acceleration on Linux.
With old ps3fb driver you won't be able to do 3D on Linux.

gentoo:
. I've used releases/ppc/2008.0/ from gentoo mirrors as stage3,
. kernel config: see attachment for 2.6.23-ps3 (unpatched, was running on 3.15)
. I've also tried to setup OpenCL without success, that's why I've cleaned all for fedora.
fedora:
. updated link at wiki, there's also a lan fix posted, or maybe just deleting /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules it will be regenerated by udev on reboot...
. sdk: not only, with my image you can start developing OpenCL also!
. visual desktop: just # yum install openbox, or setup a vncserver
it's minimal, but it's fedora, so rpms, yum is the package manager, has its repo and so on
make menuconfig makes you confused:
. if you have a working kernel-config just overwrite .config in kernel source tree and do make oldconfig to import previous configuration first,
. if you don't have, you can do a make ps3_defconfig;
then adjust/check with make menuconfig
