Default Noob Installation Issue.

So while this might sound new to some, it might be an known issue to experts.

I tried installing the OS last night, it did warn me that it will take aprox 2hrs. During the install, I noticed a new message on the command line while doing the initial Full install.

It's a 60GB Model, with 40GB for gaming, and 10GB OS.

I also formated my PS3 HD all the way after the failure, and it says 47/55GB ( nothing loaded on this thing, is this normal? )

the error I got during install was;

Warning:librarygc 4.3.X-X.rpm NOKEYID - and then followed by a blinkijng crusor? Is this a fault, and is this an idication that the installation has failed?

Also, I downloaded the ISO with Bittorent, and burnt on a 4x burner.

Thanks,

smokey

Try installing again. If it fails, it could be a problem with one of the files (FC5 DVD, Other OS Installer, kboot image)

Thanks.

BTW, I did notice the same Warning falg in your installation - the image you posted.

So I am assuming that this is normal?

Stop with all the Exclamation marks and question marks, try.
  • Holding the power button down for about 5 or more seconds till the PS3 resets.
  • If you get a command line type "boot-game-os" and hit enter

If you have done what Granite has suggested and it hasn't worked then make your own help thread instead of continuing to bump this one.
