Installing OtherOS++ CFW by glevand and Red Ribbon Linux (RC5) on the PS3. Your HDD will be formated and you loose all data! You need a USB keyboard, a mouse and a PS3 on 3.55 or below. Done one PS3 Slim 160GB CECH-2504a (original firmware 3.55).

10. Ctrl+Alt+Del to get back to the XMB or restart the PS3
Step 3 01:45 - Install Linux to the PS3 HDD
Copy all Red Ribbon Files to the root of your USB Stick, or burn it on CD, and put it in your PS3.
1. Start "reboot" from XMB to get into petitboot
2. Chose the first one
