Install petitboot on Rebug 3.55.2 OOS++

Today I bought my new PS3 Slim 320 GB - I was lucky, the firmware on it was 3.55.. I have installed Rebug 3.55.2 OtherOS++ on it, planning to install linux (Red Ribbon-distro). But I can't figure out how to install petitboot to switch from Game OS to Other OS++.. I have downloaded the pkg's, boot otheros and reboot, but I need to install petitboot first. I found this tutorial - http://psx-scene.com/forums/f119/how...titboot-85533/ - but since Rebug already created 22 GB harddisk space just for otheros I don't know which part of the tutorial I need to execute. Hope somebody can help me

Thanks for your help. Really appreciated.. I have never been in touch with linux before, so I have no idea how to run script "create_hdd_region.sh" (step 10). I found this link - /forums/ps3-cfw-mfw/cant-see-other-os-region-petitboot-rebug-3-55-2-a-120229-post382223.html (******* in front - link was blocked) - and did what was told, but without any luck.. I can run my "Red Ribbon"-cd from petitboot, but when I will install it on the internal harddisk, then it can't find my reserved OtherOS space on the harddisk, because I haven't completed step 10 above.. Any clues?
