Install Other OS

kabone commented 5 years ago

Why do you want to go to 3.15 with a 2001a? What's the min version it's been on?

ghost commented 5 years ago

Even if minCheckVersion give you 3.15 on a slim, you won’t have opportunity to install Linux on it.

If you want to install linux on slim, you will have to use a OtherOS++ enabled CFW.

Some Details: Those patched CFW will reformat the HDD to make some space for linux. You can grab one already patched or create your own with MFWbuilder.

Once done, you will need a petitboot build with patched kernel to run on otheros++, again you can grab one (ex: dtbImage.ps3.bin for the ps3 slim (NOR flash) or dtbImage.ps3.bin.minimal for old Ps3 Phat with Nand flash) or build one.

Once you have all those elements, you can proceed to the actual installation.

1) Install your otheros++ patched CFW. (reinstall in recovery mode to format HDD) 2) Flash petitboot with a package like the one in rebug's toolbox. 3) Boot petitboot. Can be done with rebug's toolbox 4) reformat the newly created partition with something like this. 5) Install linux. Simple outdated : RRL Up to date SDE : T2 SDE Build your own using chroot (debootsrap, ...)

[Edit]: Added some details on how to install linux via otheros++

Thanks for Response,it's impossible :/

That's not totally true. I have run on all models 2501a and under. You cannot downgrade to 3.15 but you can definitely boot/install a bootloader and linux.. Check out rebug toolbox and petitboot for the ps3 slim. If you have issues don't be afraid to ask. I was told the same thing, I didn't take that as an answer, it was surprisingly simple to do..

Some links to look at for simple solutions: http://www.psx-place.com/threads/tutorial-installing-red-ribbon-linux-on-rebug-4-81-2-d-rex.16419/ http://jk.ozlabs.org/projects/petitboot/ http://redribbongnulinux.000webhostapp.com/ Red Ribbon a ps3 distro based Debian Jessie. Has support for the CELL SDK 3.1 and works with all files in this repo..
