First you need repo node patches from OtherOS++, without it, it won't work.

Here are Linux kernel patches:

http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/linux/linux-3/patches/lv1cal l-repo-node-lparid-param.patch
http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/linux/linux-3/patches/gelic- disable-eurus-ctrl-iface.patch

Here are OpenWRT patches:

http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/linux/openwrt/patches-3.2/00 08-lv1call-repo-node-lparid-param.patch
http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/linux/openwrt/patches-3.2/00 09-gelic-disable-eurus-ctrl-iface.patch

Make sure you enable gelic WLAN in Linux kernel config.

This topic is about WLAN on PHAT and not about ubuntu.
Did WLAN work or not ?

I see the following lines:

[    4.031790] ps3_gelic_driver sb_04: ps3_gelic_driver_probe: eurus control interface is enabled
[    4.037334] ps3_gelic_driver sb_04: ps3_gelic_driver_probe: eurus control interface was disabled


which means my patches worked and eurus control interface was disabled.
Does WLAN work now ?

Hmm, but then i see these messages:

We need another patch to gelic to see what error is returned by LV1 here:
gelic_eurus_sync_cmd_worker: cmd issue failed.

Let me create it.

Don't use the old ps3flash. Select my driver in OpenWRT menuconfig -> Kernel Modules -> Block Devices.
You selected the old one.

Deselect the old one in kernel_menuconfig.

If you do it right then you will see this:

And this:

ps3flash                8020  3
...
root@ps3-linux:/#


dmesg should show you this:

 ps3flash sb_04: VFLASH is off

because you have NAND.

I've updated OpenWRT via svn update
./scripts/feeds update -a
./scripts/feeds install -a

no more kmod-ps3flash and kmod-ps3nflash!
issue after reboot... no control:
no keyboard -> telnet
no lan, no telnet

And never flash a petitboot image without testing it first with a working petitboot and kexec at runtime, like this:

kexec -l openwrt-ps3-petitboot-vmlinux.elf
kexec -e


The ELF-image is here: build_dir/target-powerpc_uClibc-0.9.32/root-ps3

I always test my images first and then flash it.

Try this:

touch package/kernel/Makefile
make menuconfig


and check if you see ps3flash and ps3nflash modules now.

The fact that you can scan and see results means that EURUS control interface was disabled properly and WLAN works actually.

I'm using wpa_supplicant on petitboot with slim WLAN and it works fine. It's WEXT interface too. Openwrt's network config doesn't work with WEXT yet but using wpa_supplicant directly works fine.
