Great, will get on this in the weekend.

Would be great if you could Dual Boot CFW to have a 3.55 and a 3.60+ partition to play online and backup your copies.

When will this guide be out? I went to gitbrew(dot)org(slash)otheros and no updates. Cannot seem to connect on IRC to ask for help either. It is an SSL connection, so maybe this is my problem. I get refused when I try irc(dot)gitbrew(dot)org. If anyone could help me troubleshoot, shoot me a PM. Thanks!

With ideas from this thread is it possible to use the OtherOS partition( from 3.15 ) utilizing this new method of launching Linux?

Graf his tools are only for 3.41 and 3.55 so it won't work.

My question is: Is it possible to boot the Linux partition made by the original OtherOS using the new method?

Short answer: No

Long answer: https://ps3wiki.lan.st/index.php?tit...ASH&oldid=2656

A format, killing all other partitions, is always needed with the resizing

What I like to know: is there any way to boot a kind of "Open Firmware" bootloader. This will open the PS3 to some other interesting OS'es like MorphOS and PPC MacOS (and v4 of the best OS ever ).

If you're talking about the OS I think you're talking about, they had 0% interest in a PS3 port. Kinda sucks seeing as the new X1000 is PPC based.

That is understandable. Apple isn't happy with the Hackintosh'es either and if someone ever manages to run GameOS on a PC Sony will kill us all financially for emulating the HyperVisor

Without Nvidia PPC driver no single OS has any change on a PPC/Nvidia based machine. So even if the owners of AOS4 (a "stupid" Belgium firm I remember) wants it, they run into the Nvidia driver problem.
Aros/MacOS/WarpOS/MorphOS etc. are all crippled by Nvidia this way. The only OS that has a working Nvidia PPC driver is GameOS.

Ow, forgot to mention: with the X1000 AOS5 will be available

gitbrew just opened their wiki page @ http://wiki.gitbrew.org/
At the bottom of the OtherOS++ page it tells you how to go about the install for NAND.

[mack19318]

on git brew it says "initimg.sh does not FULLY support NAND as of 05/29/2011"
should i wait?
dont want to screw up my fat model, i have a slim running other os just fine.
