I was thinking that this board needed a thread like this

I found this site http://fr.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/Yellow_Dog_Linux.html that has a bunch of apps for yellowdog i havent tested them yet

Yellow Dog costs money :'(. Yeah, that looks like a legit repository.

He was referring to the DVD Disc version which does cost money it's for people who can't be bothered to burn it themselves or don't have the necessary tools to burn it themselves

if you dont have a dvd burner by now, you need to get with the times.

**NoEffex** · 08-08-2008, 04:28 PM

Oh, I didn't realize that. I was looking around, couldn't find any downloads for the iso's, the website listed prices for it, so I assumed it was a purchase thing.

Do they sell one seperate DVD disc?
Also do I need to format my PS3 to install yellowdog?

**twelve** · 08-11-2008, 07:57 PM

Yes you need to format your PS3 to allocate 10GB to a linux partition.

nick48 · 08-11-2008, 07:58 PM

So that would mean I loose all my games/demos, videos and music?

**twelve** · 08-11-2008, 07:58 PM

If you have an external Hard Drive then you can backup everything, then format and then restore everything.

Ok thanks.

Pretty much anything that's linux compatible and is built for the PowerPC architecture will work.
