bullseye! that´s what i´m talking about ;) great information leonhong You can still use my way to clone your partition. Ubuntu Live cd does not care what is on your disk. Just remember to clone every linux partitions that you see on your disk. this seems a good tip " Live cd does not care what ...

dear leonhong thank for your post 1) Prepare a Live CD of your system. My system is Gutsy, so I used Gutsy Live CD. Fedora PPC dont have any Live CD, damn luck about your instructions I rember that I cannot boot any live cd, except fedora ppc (the one I installed), and this distro only permits to In...

Thanks for your support and help, When I have a spare time, I will try to do what you say its seems an excelent tip :)

see dmesg on ps3 boot, and there you'll find whatever partition tables you set up under Linux on the PS3 you mean this Looking for disk devices... Region 3: id 3 start 25165832 size 92044408 if so, how can I mount it readdony for backup, using other otheros.bld , or a boot cd. or better to use dd w...

You are not being clear... since you now say "partition magic" I assume you're talking about pulling the disk out of the PS3, putting it in a PC, and trying to read it there? In that case, yes, the partition table is encrypted and not readable by the PS3. sorry, but my english is...you kn...

another try...another fail... no problem I try otheros-petitboot+network.bld like in the past, I confirm it has dd ready for work, but it cant access my ps3 linux filesystem like the normal petit boot currently installed I cant access linux partition with /var/tmp/mnt-sda3-? like with normal petit b...

First thanks for the repply :) Access to the PS3 disk depends only on having the proper driver built into your kernel, or loaded as a module. The kernel/initrd is in otheros.bld, but any otheros.bld that you would get from a distro is certainly able to access the disk. this seems true, but I was abl...

I Found that I can install any other otheros.bld from other distros, and boot sucefully from the media, like live cds and back to petiti boot again this way I change otheros.bld at will :) and try some live cds in my first boot with unbutu live cd, my first problem unbutu cant found ps3 linux partit...

First I have Fedora 7 PPC Installed with PetitiBoot otheros.bld The problem Now, is when I boot from cd/dvd from the following distros in PetitBoot: Fedora 7 (currently installed distro), Xunbutu, Yellow Dog, OpenSus...
