After doing an initial install attempt, I found out that Ubuntu doesn't like the core kboot prompt that the PS3 has. After doing some research I found out that as of yet, in order to install Ubuntu, I first must install Fedora Core 5: Minimum install.

Considering this, I decided to Install Fedora Core 6. I downloaded the required ISO's

PS3 Linux Addon Disc-FC6.iso
Fedora Core 6 DVD
OtherOS.bld
OtherOS.self

This way my reasoning for making a affordable viable alternative PC for students will be easier for installing and would save hours.

Fedora Core 5 or 6 is still a useful OS for a student. It can have OpenOffice as well as other RPM's/Software.

I am doing more research online to see what other people have gone through with it. As well as any possible errors or problems along the way. Any information useful I bookmark with my Del.icio.us Bookmarks.

I plan on attempting an install after class tonight (class: 6-9pm).
