Sashz has updated his Linux based OS Selector front-end dubbed pdaXrom-NG for PS3 to Live CD 20091201.
Unlike the
previous release, it uses lxde as the desktop environment and PS3Boot is now included. To boot from CD, burn ISO image or unzip the archive to boot from a memory card.
Download:
OtherOS pdaXrom-NG Linux PS3 Live CD 20091201 (Zip) /
OtherOS pdaXrom-NG Linux PS3 Live CD 20091201 (iSO)
Update 20091201 features gcc 4.4.2 devtools and a Webkit-based browser (less memory usage).
Note: This will only work on PlayStation 3 entertainment systems that include OtherOS support, not the newer PS3 Slim versions unfortunately.
What's new:
• Midori 0.2.1 (WebKit based webbrowser)
• Ekiga 3.2.6 (SIP audio/video phone)
• Pidgin 2.6.3
• gcc 4.4.2
• kernel 2.6.31.6
Applications:
• Leafpad
• Terminal
• Image viewer
