    Help with installation on PS3

    I recently tried to install kubuntu on my PS3, i have been trying to use the install function at the k prompt. but everytime it tries to install to the hard disk (the step after partitioning the drive) i get an error msg saying there is something wrong with the linux-cell image. this also happened when i tried to install ubuntu.

    i formatted my ps3 hdd, partitioned it and followed the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PlayStation_3

    i do get asked to look at the error log but i'm not sure how to do dat. has anyone else experienced this problem? does anyone have any advice for me?

      Did you pull the .iso for the LiveCD from the Testing Gutsy Gibbon section at the bottom??
      I ask, as you are posting your question in the Gutsy Gibbon area of the Forum.

      Note: None of these images are currently expected to work at all.

        i downloaded Kubuntu from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/po...owerpc+ps3.iso
        and i also tried Ubuntu which i downloaded from
        http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/rele...owerpc+ps3.iso

        both resulted in the same error msg occurring during the same portion of the installation process

          I remember seeing the "None of these images are currently expected to work at all" message under the downloads for Kubuntu/Ubuntu/Xubuntu 8.04
