Success! Breakthrough with successful payload delivery, code execution and exploitation has happened. Both a Palm Pre and an N900 have been used, by completely separate developers, to "jailbreak" the Playstation 3.
Using a modified kernel driver, KaKaRoTo has been able to successfully emulate multiple USB devices to deliver his payload for the psgroove vulnerability, giving you the ability to run unsigned code and opens doors for developers, hackers and homebrew'ers. PSFreedom.
He has said source and all will be released shortly, but has provided the kernel driver, compiled against the stock OMAP1 kernel for the N900. It's literally plug and play.
Meanwhile, Hector Martin has been working with his OMAP3 beagleboard, and has received word from a fellow tester that he was able to tinker with gadget and sysfs enough on his Palm Pre, to deliver the code to a PS3 sporting 3.41 firmware.
I prefer the userspace approach, however once KaKaRoTo releases his source, I'll be compiling it for my kernel and giving it a shot!
Ain't this device just the best?
TUTORIAL
download the .tar.gz
You must login or register to view this content., extract it, copy the files to your n900 (with scp, into /root), then ssh into your N900 and type : ./psfreedom-enable.sh
Then you can follow the usual procedure, unplug the PS3 from power, plug in the N900, connect the power to the PS3, then press power and *quickly* press the eject button… Then just let the magic happen!
Once you’re done or want to revert back to the normal operation mode of the N900 (or to charge it) run the command ./psfreedom-disable.sh
