HELL IS HERE
Great news for those who were left out of the OtherOS++ party; the guys over at Gitbrew.org has managed to get OtherOS++ working on all PS3 models–fat, slim, or obese.
Features:

Into HV integrated OtherOS bootloader loader (compatible with OtherOS bootloader on 3.15)
OtherOS bootloader is booted directly from HV, no GameOS is involved.
Process of booting OtherOS bootloader loader is very similar to 3.15 method
Booting Linux from HDD/USB/BD/Network
Linux with GameOS rights
Full access to all HV SS services (Dispatcher Manager) from GameOS or Linux
Full access to all System Manager services
Ability to create/modify/remove repository nodes in LPAR 1 (e.g. with ps3dm-utils or ps3hvc-utils).
This ability gives you much power over the whole system because many layers of PS3 use repository nodes to exchange information.
Enabled QA mode in Update Manager
Downgrading without USB dongle or Service Mode
Ability to deactivate/activate HDD/VFLASH encryption (e.g. with ps3stor-utils)
Support for ps3-utils. You can flash new OtherOS bootloader from Linux e.g.
Install OtherOS on HDD – for all PS3 models (excerpt from gitbrew.org):
NOTICE: All my tools should beep. If you don’t get beep during one of the steps below
then stop doing anything and contact me. I will help.
OtherOS++ support: irc.gitbrew.org (ssl) #otheros

Install my latest CFW You must login or register to view this content. You must login or register to view this content.
When installation is finished, go to recovery menu and choose “Restore PS3 System”
Now your GameOS should use only the half of your HDD
(Currently working on a better approach)
Run setup_flash_for_otheros.pkg (for all PS3 models)
Reboot
Store dtbImage.ps3.bin on USB drive, plug it in and run install_otheros.pkg
(NAND owners should use dtbImage.ps3.bin.minimal, rename it to dtbImage.ps3.bin).
Try different USB ports if you don’t get any beeps.
Run boot_otheros.pkg
Run reboot.pkg
You should be in petitboot now.
Exit from CUI to shell or switch to another virtual console.
Run script create_hdd_region.sh
Reboot and boot petitboot again
You should see now new HDD device on petitboot, /dev/ps3dd.
That’s your OtherOS HDD region.
Don’t touch any other HDD regions if you don’t know what you are doing. Use only ps3dd
device for your Linux installation. Use parted to partition it and create GPT partition
table on ps3dd. GPT is supported by both, Linux and FreeBSD.
Be warned, if you damage your GameOS HDD region, GameOS will reformat HDD and
remove your Linux HDD region in the process. You have to do the above steps again.
Don’t mess with GameOS HDD region and GameOS won’t mess with your OtherOS HDD region.

no bro isnt it planed to come back
i highly doubt it, the reason for the removal had nothing to do with security risks or ps3's costs,
in fact it was because IBM was not happy about the military using PS3s for clustering, instead of buying IBM Blades servers,
So IBM is to blame but sony did lie to us on that.
So graf's prison threats & 1 mill fines is all cuz $ony & IBM are greedy fags and they deserve to get hacked.
