1. install AsbestOS installer v1 or higher: slim – You must login or register to view this content., fat – You must login or register to view this content.
2. partition a USB disk to have at least one partition (FAT-formatted);
3. You must login or register to view this content. unpack linux.img and put it into the root dir of usb disk;
4. run AsbestOS installer;
5. install lv2 patcher v9 or higher: You must login or register to view this content.
6. attach an ethernet cable, connected to a network with a dhcp-server (just for the initial boot, it can be a SOHO router – just anything with DHCP);
7. run lv2 patcher and select “Linux”;
8. as you see the fb console with penguins, you can unplug the ethernet cable;
9. login: ps3, password: ps3.
If you don’t see anything, press Ctrl-Alt-F1, then Alt-F7.
