Which file do i burn to a dvd?
I downloaded the YDL5.1 file, and i burned it to a dvd twice (once with the whole file, and once with the individual files). Niether of them worked on my ps3, so what am i doing wrong? an i suppost to burn the WinRAR file? or open it in WinRAR and burn ALL the files in it?
When i open it in WinRAR, these are the files that come up: YellowDog repodata PS3 ppc images etc RPM-GPG-KEY RELEASE-NOTES .discinfo So how do i burn all these files onto a dvd? thank you |

Just use Nero or something. Any DVD burner will work my friend.
Are you sure you have the right "Otheros" file that boots up Linux?

You burn the .iso file, essentially the "WinRAR File" to the disk.
A tool that I use and that works very well is Active@ ISO Burner Download link You just download and use. No setup is needed. |

The reason the ps3 is not accepting the DVD is because you are burning the winRAR file to it not the iso itself. You need a special burner like this one described on terrasoft's page.

To my knowledge I haven't seen some CD images for YDL 6. I might be wrong but, my searching turned up nothing.
