How to enable slackintosh on a PS3?


Can anyone here explain to me how to enable slackintosh 11 to boot on a ps3?
I have the iso and would like to know what to change.
I already have debian installed on it and would much rather switch over to slackware as the ps3 is my only computer now.
Thanx in advance.

i think this has come up on the mailing list in the past, none of the developers have a ps3, so getting slackintosh would be quite a feat from their point of view. You could always try following someone other distros(gentoo, debian) instructions for installation and substitute in slackintosh's packages. I know that there is a 64-bit kernel provided on the cd's

Thanks for the reply,I wonder if it's as simple as pointing the kboot.conf in the right direction and placing the other file(don't remember what it's called)in the ISO.I'll probably give this a shot.Sony's enable your distro site kinda leaves me clueless about installing anything else other than fedora core(except for conf file idea,and I really just don't like fedora)
I might try what you suggest with my debian installation
