Editing Distributions

[[Category:OtherOS]]
=Linux/BSD distributions=
Linux/BSD distributions must conform to some aspects before they are useable on the PS3:

* PPC64 ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerPC PowerPC] 64bit), recommended or PPC32 ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerPC PowerPC] 32bit)
* Kernel patches etc, for PS3 support (e.g.: [http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/linux/ Linux] / [http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/freebsd/ BSD])
* Boot support for GPT ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table GUID Partition Table])

Side note : You can run a GNU/Linux distribution (OtherOS++) with a MSDOS partition table, but GPT is (very) recommended.

== List of distributions ==
The below worked in old OtherOS (FW [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/index.php?title=Playstation_Update_Package_%28PUP%29#1.60_RETAIL.2FCEX 1.60] =&lt; [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/index.php?title=Playstation_Update_Package_%28PUP%29#3.15_RETAIL.2FCEX 3.15]) , should work on [[OtherOS++]] with some effort as well.

==Untested distributions==

===Backtrack===
* Backtrack 3-5 (No PowerPC version is available, compiling one might be an option, but maintaining it would be a nightmare)

===NetBSD===
It should run under 3.15 firmware OtherOS. Glevand is working on a port to OtherOS++.


Original port to PlayStation 3 : ftp://nandra.segv.jp/pub/NetBSD/ps3/

Gitbrew Wiki page about NetBSD : http://wiki.gitbrew.org/wikibrew/PS3:NetBSD

Glevand's NetBSD repository : http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/netbsd/


If you want to help to port NetBSD to OtherOS++, please join the following communication support :

Forum : http://wiki.gitbrew.org/forum/f/37/

IRC : Channel #otheros on irc.gitbrew.org (ssl/6697) or channel #ps3linux on irc.efnet.net.

Note : All the Gitbrew related links/support/etc are down at the moment and maybe forever (08/16/2012).

In order to help, you should at least got a proper working NetBSD environment on your PC, dual-boot, virtual-machine or harddisk installation.
