PS3 LINUX

PS3 LINUX - HOW TO INSTALL


PS3 linux sony would like us gamers to think that we cant install Linux on our consoles. However, now we can and it's not difficult at all. I am here today to guide you through the ps3 linux download process, step by step.

PS3 LINUX INSTALL

1. Download the PS3 Magic software here, and copy it to disk or usb storage device.
2. Insert your disc or thumbdrive (usb stick) into your Playstation 3 and just wait a few seconds for the install wizard to come up. It will guide you through the configuring  automatically.
3. When the wizard is done configuring, simply click the install button wait a minute or three and thats that. Easy as Mac n cheeses. You can have this set up on your console literally within 10 minutes of purchasing your copy of ps3 magic.

BUT WHY WOULD I WANT LINUX ON MY PS3


Why put Linux on ps3 ? Well, first off Linux is a very good and popular operating system. It is used from a wide range of devices, from smart phones up to extremly powerful super computers. Windows and Mac operating systems both are compatible on linux, not to mention the thousands of App's, games etc.

Some benefits:
ps3 linux performance with Windows OS:

As you all know, the web browser on our ps3 just flat out stinks. Finally, with windows we get great browser now. Unlike the crappy browser that comes installed, we can now tailor it the way were used to browsing the internet. Yes, this means you can add any browser you like now, mine happens to be Firefox because its fast, but you can use wich ever you want.

Game On:


Ofcourse you will still be able to play any and all new ps3 games Linux just permits you with many more choices. With the right emulator, like Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator, you can play all your games on one system, Atari, SNES, PS1 , just to name a few.





JAM'S, FLICK'S, PIC'S AND MORE


This is something that used to really get blood boiling, OK, Imagine this, your downloading a movie on the internet ( wich can take hours sometimes), your waiting for it to finish, you pop it in, and... what! cant play this file! I hate that, but not anymore, you will soon be able to veiw pretty much any file that could view on a PC or Mac right on the big screen.

PS3 SLIM LINUX Install



Installing Linux on the ps3 is no different from any other PS3.

PS3 Linux OtherOS


When you install Linux on your system, it will not replace the Sony OS. You will have both systems on your console and you will be able to choose which one you use from the start menu on the playstation.
If for whatever reason you would ever want to remove the Linux OS, you can easily do so. Unistalling the software will not cause any damage and your PS3 will be restored to back to its boreing old self again.

PS3 LINUX HACK

Please, if you want linux on your ps3, just pay for the software. Unless you are an experienced hacker with very programming skills, Do Not manually try to install linux on your console. You will kill your system and it wont be able to be fixed. I read about this happening every day.
Just save yourself the time and frustration and order PS3 Magic and let it do the hard part for you..
