I've got linux (debian) working on my 3.55 wutangrza+geohot ps3 but obviously at this moment in time Linux boots off of the usb drive/ external HDD etc you have plugged in at that time because there is no way to boot it off of internal HDD (annoyingly). However, I have a PS3 version with only 2 USB ports. I need keyboard and mouse to use linux properly but one is already taken up. Bearing in mind you cannot switch devices around post boot, what should I do?
Thanks

This is Super easy to get around, If you have a guitar hero USB adapter you can use that to grant you an extra USB OR run to a store and purchase a USB hub. Basically what they do is plug into an existing USB on the system and splits it into multiple other USB's so that should solve your problems.
