30w ago - Following up on his
previous RC6 update,
r04drunner has announced today that a new online update for Red Ribbon GNU / Linux on the PS3 entertainment system is released.
Download:
Red Ribbon GNU/Linux Online Update for PS3 (SourceForge)
To quote: This update includes the following changes:
- Added a 3.6.7 kernel with the Graf_chokolo's, Marcan's and Gitbrew's patches.
- Added PS3-utils.
- Added Mplayer.
You need to connect the PS3 to the internet, open a lxterminal and download the file:
wget http://redribbon.t15.org/downloads/online-update-2012-11-21.sh
Then, you can execute it:
sudo sh online-update-2012-11-21.sh
And wait until finished.
The next time that you reboot the system, some new kernel options will appear on Petitboot. You must select the new 3.6.7 option for OtherOS or Asbestos.
Once you have booted using the new kernel version, if you want to remove the old 3.5.2 kernel versions, you can do it using the Synaptic package manager or executing the next command on a lxterminal:
apt-get remove linux-image-3.5.2-red-ribbon-powerpc64-asbestos linux-image-3.5.2-red-ribbon-powerpc64-otheros linux-headers-3.5.2-red-ribbon-powerpc64-asbestos linux-headers-3.5.2-red-ribbon-powerpc64-otheros
