Following up on his previous update, over the weekend PlayStation 3 hacker Graf Chokolo has released his PS3 Linux 2.6 Kernel and began documenting his PS3 CFW Custom Firmware with OtherOS++ Project.

His new PlayStation 3 Linux Kernel includes a new HDD, FLASH, VFLASH and RAM drivers for PS3 and AsbestOS users can use the drivers as well.

To quote: The repository which is based on Linux 2.6 kernel, has several wicked stuff in it especially graf_chokolo’s ram block device. As kmeaw said; “It can read/write anything in PS3 RAM, and very useful for HV hacking”

You can read below the commits done to his version of Linux kernel.

* Added support of several storage regions to PS3 storage library
* Improved PS3 disk block device driver
* New drivers for PS3 NOR and 3 RAM misc driver for full access to HV memory
* Added new HV calls
* Added extra debug messages for SPU isolation


Finally, from You must login or register to view this content. PS3 CFW Custom Firmware with OtherOS++

* First we need a custom Hypervisor (lv1.self) with OtherOS++ support and other nice features like full access to HV services :-) (working on it)
* Second, we need a program like otheros.self which will resize VFLASH region and store there petitboot
* Third, we need a GameOS program/XMB plugin which will trigger OtherOS++ boot after GameOS reboot by setting a flag on the 5th VFLASH region

Awesome, can anyone post a tut on how to install it? I am familiar with linux, I use ubuntu as my main os, but a tut on how to use this on the ps3 would be nice
