Ok for all of you who have never used linux then you may not know about this. When sudo or su prompts you for a password you are typing but its a blind type so people who might be looking at the screen cant see your root password then simply hit enter.

OK something really important i forgot to say is that putting the < > in will cuase errors

Ok so i posted something before but here are some pics etc

.::Updates/chapters::.

1. Basics
2. Setting up vm ware
3. SDK ONLY works ON bebug pkg's

.::PARTS FROM MICHAEL::.

downlode the ps3 sdk ver 1.6

USE THE FOLLOWING TO UNPACK/PACK
________________________________

sudo apt-get install yum

Type in your root password

yum ps3unpkgr 'need to do this :P'

you can use "ps3unpkgr -x <PKG name>" and unpack everything


To pack it into a PKG again, use "ps3unpkgr -c <PKG name>" and it will pack

.::PARTS FROM ME::.

'This is if your new to Ubuntu and cant figure stuff out'

sudo passwd root "i use 1 as my password" 'Sets Root password'

open fire fox and download

' Do this cuz Ubuntu can't install .rpm files'
"https://pleasantfiction.ipower.com/ps3linux/ps3bodega62/ppc/ps3bodega-release-6.2-2.noarch.rpm

sudo apt-get install alien

sudo alien -k ps3bodega-release-6.2-2.noarch.rpm 'Converts .rpm > .deb'

sudo dpkg -i ps3bodega-release_6.2-2_all.deb 'Installs the .deb'

.::Gui Method::.


Goto Places Your User Account profile /home/your profile here
and run ps3bodega-release_6.2-2_all.deb

Install the files and your good to go.

.::Windows::.
(Not Working) Confirmed by me.[/CENTER]

Download the PS3 SDK.
Go into the "host-win32" folder.
Go into "bin."
In Command Prompt, drag "make_package_npdrm.exe" into the prompt, and use -x <PKG name> to decompress. Use -c <PKG name> to compress.
This unpacker will only work for certain PKGs! Luckily, the patch falls under this category.

"Fixed" it by myself.. Put the .rpm on your desktop and type at the Terminal "$cd ~/Desktop".

After that you can do these steps:

sudo alien -k ps3bodega-release-6.2-2.noarch.rpm 'Converts .rpm > .deb'
sudo dpkg -i ps3bodega-release_6.2-2_all.deb 'Installs the .deb'

Just picked up a copy of Linux Desktop Edition (Netbook Edition sucks!). When I start up I get to choose to boot Linux pr Windows XP, I love Linux!

BTW, it works a lot better when you install the OS, not just run it from VMWare
