Problem of installing YDL 5.0 in PS3




Hi all, i've downloaded a Yellow Dog Linux 5.0 ISO file and burnt as an image DVD+RW to install in the Playstation 3, but when it started kboot, the following error existed:

Kboot:
UDF-fs: No VRS found
get memory ranges:1
Modified cmdline:root=/dev/ram video=ps3fb:mode:3 init=/sbin/init
segment(0).mem:0x17ce000 memsz:24719360
segment(1).mem:0x2f61000 memsz:16348
segment(2).mem:0x2f65000 memsz:2084864
segment(3).mem:0x7bff000 memsz:4096
VUART: cleanup.
SYSMGR: cleanup.(close event mask)


then, the Playstation 3 shut down automatically.


i'm just a new user of linux, anyone can help me to solve this problem in simple way ? Thanks

Couple of things. Firstly try burning to a regular DVD, not an RW. Secondly make sure the DVD is in your PS3 before you get to this point of the installation. If that doesn't work I have no idea what's going on.

UDF-fs is a type of filesystem, one that is used on DVDs (all I tried anyway); and I found this about the no-vrs part :
Quote:
VRS is the Volume Recognition Sequence, which identifies the type of data on your CD. It means that your CD driver (thru the kernel) doesn't identify the type of file system on the CD you try to mount.
Upon seeing this, all I can recommend is the same as rkotecha.

Good Luck

rkotecha & serafean, thank you !

initally, i wonder the ISO file got error, but i've checked with a software called "md5sum" which let me check the ISO file is correct or not. and it is ckecked OK!
until now, i have got the same problem even i try to burn DVD+R (not Rewritable), and i had copied the ISO file to an external harddisk and let my friend help me burn, but also failed.

i nearly give up now, anybody can give me a helping hand to solve the problem?
is there any settings i missed to burn the ISO file ?
or my PS3 had its internal problem ?

thanks all !

Hi, you may want to check this out : http://www.terrasoftsolutions.com/su..._ps3_guide.pdf

Also, have you re-downloaded the image? Sometimes thats the key; although seeing you used MD5, I doubt ii. I don't have a PS3, so I don't really know how it works/configures.

Good luck

The bottom line is that your PS3 is saying that it doesn't understand the file system burned on the DVD you've inserted. My best guess is that you may have downloaded the wrong ISO file. Are you sure you downloaded Yellow Dog 5.0 for the PS3. If you downloaded the version for i386 or some other variant then it's not going to work.

Look at the the comments on this page for a link to the FTP site.

hi there,

this may sound stupid lol but normal composite connection is to low for the setup so you need HD TV (HDMI)

So is your PS3 connected to a Hi Def TV(HDMI port) if not when it says kboot just press tap and choose Install Text

Leasing fail

I think this means it failed to get an IP address from your DHCP Server (Linksys/DLink Router or whatever you have.)

Note: Last time I checked no PS3 Linux "distro" (hope that's the right term) is able to pick up and configure the PS3's built in WiFi. You need a direct connection to the Network or buy one of those cheap "bridges" (WiFi gaming adapter). Motorola used to sell them for CDN$30
