Hi,

I was having problems with the website project hosted at sourceforge for exceeding its bandwidth threshold and I decided to temporally disable the online repository.

I was looking for an alternative hosting to store the repository and then I also decided to migrate the blog to the new website.

For use the online repository, you need to connect the PS3 to the internet, open a lxterminal and download the file:

wget http://redribbon.t15.org/downloads/online-update-2011-09-23.sh

Then, you can execute it:

sudo sh online-update-2011-09-23.sh

Best regards

Hello, i was trying out Red Ribbon lately, trying to install it on USB pen drive (4GB).
I am launching it from livecd by bootos-petitboot and lv2 patcher (v9), it runs fine ( other than few I/O errors at begging, tried with 2 other cd burnt from 2 other PC's with freshly downloaded images). The first thing i noticed was that screen resolution was set to 1080p while my TV supports only 720, so everything is hard to read.
As guide said i waited with plugging my USB stick in until i get to installation. It recognized it just fine as /dev/sda 4GB, but it fails to automatically partition it, and manual partitioning option closes cfdisk the moment it starts.
Any idea what can cause that? I am trying to do it on PS3 slim, Red Ribbon RC5, live cd with asbestos boot option.

TL;TR
Red Ribbon fails to partition my USB stick, auto and manual.

EDIT:1366×768 is resolution just for me (windows connected to my TV looks just fine at that resolution), but its not listed in videomodes, any ideas how to set that?

Hi!

I published a new online update that enables the wireless on slims models.

You need to connect the PS3 to the internet, open a lxterminal and download the file:

wget http://redribbon.t15.org/downloads/online-update-2011-11-21.sh

Then, you can execute it:

sudo sh online-update-2011-11-21.sh

You can get more info at project page.

Can you try to create the partitions manually?

You should open a LxTerminal and execute:

sudo cfdisk /dev/sda

About resolutions,can you try to set manually in xorg.conf?

You can get more information about it at the Project Wiki

It isn't a critical update. You don't need this update if you don't have a slim model, but I recommend execute it anyway.
