OK. I'm risking it all and trying out this procedure. I hope some people can help me with my current problem...
PS3 Model CECHE 80GB.
Currently at Step 8-3:
"/tmp/petitboot/mnt/sda1/create_hdd_region.sh" does not work. However, it seems mine is at ""/tmp/petitboot/mnt/sdd1/create_hdd_region.sh" and it seems to work....
On Step 8-9, it doesn't ask me for any login.....
Now on Step 8-10, it seems to work, until the installer asks me where to put Red Ribbon Linux, and there's only one choice, it's actually the MicroSD card reader I'm using as the USB drive. And the PS3 hard drive is nowhere to be seen.
Now looking at the file manager, I see the 80GB PS3 Hard Disk, however, trying to mount it results in the following error message :
Error mounting: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on dev/ps3db, missing codepage or helper program, or other error...... (etc etc)
My experience for Linux is near zero so any help would be greatly appreciated....
