My answer: BECAUSE IT WILL BE FREAKING SLOW AS HELL!
Even my freaking netbook (SINGLE CORE: 2.4 GHZ)
YES NETBOOOK!! is faster than this crap..
They shouldn't even release this crap, if i would be developing this i would only release it when it has decent speed lol..
Please stop *****ing.

Why? Because you sound spoilt.

after couple of hours of work ( waist of time) i followed all the steps , everything went well. at the end i get this message " no boot loader has been installed. you need to boot manually with: / boot/vmlinux kernel on partition/dev/sda1 and root=/dev/sda1 passed as a kernel argument.

continue
i hit enter then i get a black screen "requesting system to reboot.
i didn't know what to do. i turn the ps3 off.
turn it back on. then what next. where is all the work.

************* [ - Post Merged - ] *************

This guys are doing great job and putting a lot of efforts and I hope we will have Linux installed soon, but if they are willing to help up answering our questions.

PHP Code:
after couple of hours of work waist of timei followed all the steps everything went wellat the end i get this message " no boot loader has been installed. you need to boot manually with: / boot/vmlinux kernel on partition/dev/sda1 and root=/dev/sda1 passed as a kernel argument.

You must go to the LV2 and select Linux again and then use the 2nd option.
But beware linux will be freaking SLOW AS HELL.

PHP Code:
Please stop *****ing.

WhyBecause you sound spoilt
@advocatusdiaboli
please shut the f*ck up allright?
i bet u don't know **** about linux and that it is light.
and the comparison i made is already enough that this linux isn't usable for the public, maybe only for tards...
Meaning you are tard, then i say: I DID NOT SAY THAT THE DEVS DID CRAP, I MEANED ASBESTOS IN THE CURRENT STATE IS CRAP

So for the tards again my opinon is that the dev's shouldnt have released this TILL it has a normal speed, because a freaking single core beats a 8 core machine? AsbestOs says that the ps3 got 2 cores.. so which means the speed MUST have been way more better..

im not spoiled.. when someone released something i just trust it wouldnt be crap

I have used linux on a daily basis since 1998... I guess I don’t know about linux.

But you are right AsbestOS in the current state is not for entertainment, but for those who would like to do further development.

Nope, you really haven't got a clue have you. I'll explain for you.

Asbestos or Bootos as it is now known allows you to install Debian Squeeze this is a basic operating system utilising the generic linux kernel, in this case it's the PPC kernel, what you do with that installation is up to you, if you go ahead and install a HUGE gui like GNOME then I imagine it would be slow, the issue isn't anything to do with the fact that the ps3 has 8 cores, it's to do with RAM, the ps3 only has 256mb of RAM onboard it, this means when you try to run something like GNOME on it and you'll very quickly run out causing the ps3 to use swap which is SLOW...

The other factor at the moment is compatibility, a PS3 and your crappy netbook have two totally different processor architectures, you're comparing apples to orange really, so a Debian install on an intel processor has better compatibility to a PPC Cell processor such as you'd find in the PS3, this means that the PS3 version of Debian needs tweaking to allow access to the more advanced features of the system it's running on, stuff that isn't really that easy to figure out. This isn't helped by the fact that the stock PS3 debian kernel that asbestos uses has a bug in it restricting the ram to 108mb

Now the way I see it, I'm pleased that the devs released this even with a few bugs as it let me use my ps3 as a low power newsgroup/torrent downloader, I wouldn't criticise any of their work seeing as I couldn't replicate any of it myself.

I'm sorry I can't dumb it down anymore but if linux is a bit scary then perhaps you'd be better off doing something else with your time rather than complaining about the things that you get for free.

I await your badly spelled and illiterate response. :-P

Ok I get it running but it is not something we can use for now. I hope they will get it running faster.

What can not be used? What running faster? It copies a full feature m2ts in 20-40 mins.
