Hi opensuse-ppc I have been chasing info to help me installing opensuse 11alpha3 (also tried alpha1 before I learnt that I could not) on my Playstation 3. I have installed the "otherOS" bit, and I boot off the DVD, and when I see the penguin on the PS3 graphic, the PS3 freezes.

I had to change some packages for alpha3 which were a little late for alpha3. Give the following otheros.bld a try: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/PS3/oth...

Stefan Thanks a lot - that definately got things started. With the above kboot, the PS3 automatically kicks off the install on the dvd, and it installs, and it installs - but - there is always a but . During installation of boot manager, I get an error, that I am sure I read about elsewhere, but cannot find again. I get a white background window, with blue title bar, and black text saying: Error occurred while installing ppc. /usr/bin/stat: cannot stat '/boot/vmlinux': No such file or directory /usr/bin/stat: cannot stat '/boot/vmlinux': No such file or directory ERROR: can not find major:minor 0:0 for Any hints? I sense I am almost there :-) Thanks so far!
