@noiseand How functions the license of live dvd? I could make the alterations that I need and to redistribute, keeping the authorship of the Deba5er´s? We need to get the source for BlackRhino before redistribution as this is the base package for my distro and the live DVD. I have contacted and awai...

@noiseand and Mega Man Deba5er has a tool for controlling the mouse with the PS2 pad. To get the PS2 Live Linux DVD version 1 to boot for my NTSC setup AND have a working Gamepad Mouse function I need to: 1) Start the PS2 Live Linux DVD 2) Control-C right before X-Windows starts (after you see the &...

@noiseand

One usb live with the same content of dvd would function?

It would work on FAT PS2 only, but would need some reconfiguration to work. USB is not working under heavy I/O load (needed for PS2-Linux) for v14+ Slim PSTwo.

@noiseand I did not obtain to use mplayer way menu in the flood. mplayer has no menu entry. There is no gui version at the moment. Instead you have to start a xterm and run "mplayer -ao sdl FILENAME" to get it to work. I only use it for .flv files, but have played other file types successf...

@suhm is there now way to create a APA partition without backuping oder total formating my hdd? Since you note you already have backups installed on your hdd, then it is already formatted with APA format. You now need to add the PS2-Linux partitions (1) swap and (2) root using the "ps2fdisk&quo...

The sound modules are the worst case part for reverse engineering I've ever seen. This is too much code and I can't break it in smaller steps. I will never reverse engineer it. The homebrew solutions only support one sampling rate, so I can't use it. Similar to how people with USB drive compatibili...

@Mega Man Very nice! First download of kloader2.1.elf must've been bad, but my second download worked great. I removed my mc0:\kloader\config.txt, ran the loader, and booted off of the live disc great right into X-Windows. I'm on my version 15 portable test rig at the moment, will test more when I g...

@Mega Man I can add uppercase file names in the list, but this may confuse the people. OK, I agree that this would be confusing...never mind. I checked-out and compiled, and verified the libsd patch option. Works great for SSX modules. I did have to modify .../TGE/iop/intrelay/Makefile to remove rul...

@ Mega Man Very cool. I'm glad you got the USB problem resolved. I assume that the USB heavy-load still has problems? If so, DVD-Video might be a good alternative to loading the large PS2-Linux tar files. I am interested in the new version to not have to patch the libsd.irx modules. Are you allowing...

@noiseand

Its SSX must be the 2.

No, this is the original SSX game.

@noiseand Which the version of its game SSX? I have it but I did not obtain to extract the modules. You can order the details to me of libsd and sdrdrv? (so great, he dates and checksun). SSX - LIBSD.IRX August 21, 2000 24909 bytes SDRDRV.IRX August 21, 2000 6865 bytes $ md5sum LIBSD.IRX 470f175e071...

The LIBSD.IRX and SDRDRV.IRX from the PS2 Game SSX work the same as the RTE versions with the renaming of both modules to lowercase, hexedit of libsd.irx as in this post: http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?p=85984#85984 EXCEPT change the edited locations to E60, E70, and EC0 instead of D70, D80,...

@noiseand Libsd.irx (with patch) + Sddrv.irx functioning perfectly, exactly without " sbios.bin" in mc0. Which libsd.irx? RTE or SSX or other game? Some experience with others linux in ps2, netbsd, etc? I want to try the new openwrt PS2-Linux next. I have only used the PS2-Linux from the o...

@noiseand

The sbios from RTE is needed only for correct DTV viewing. Since I do not have a DTV, I cannot properly test. How would you extract the sbios to test?

@noiseand Which the new features gifts in " vmlinux_fat_and_slim_v3.gz"? This new version of ps2-linux kernel allows ps2fs access, which means you can mount native PS2 hdd partitions from ps2-llinux like _common, _boot, and +MYPS2. Version 2 allows mounting the memory cards and accessing a...

@noiseand Some of you already had tried to go up an image raw of hd made way dd command instead of a partition ext2? I have created a loop file raw image using dd which I mount over SMB from my NAS device or Windows PC. Internal to the loop file the filesystem is ext3. It works great. This is what I...

@noiseand To use the pair of modules you are placing in mc0 or is only necessary qualifies them in " config.txt"? Both libsd.irx and sdrdrv.irx must be lowercase and must be in mc0:\kloader directory. Then you must choose them from the "modules" section of kloader under "con...

@noiseand Some of you already had obtained to make streaming of video in ps2linux? Using as serving vlc, windows it measured, etc? My ps2-linux distro has mplayer using SDL for audio working for youtube videos (.flv) pretty good, even streaming from the internet on my PS2-Linux on FAT PS2 with hdd, ...

@noiseand Yes, I think about who does not have dvds of the RTE and module LIBSD.IRX to apply patch, but in compensation another game has this module of some and can use. Necessary to test if this it would function, if we could apply in the module alternative. Necessary to confirm, but I believe that...

@Kaweni OK, I understand now. You should move or delete your config.txt file from the mc0:\kloader directory and then try to start it. If it still fails, download my ps2linux_v0.7.zip from http://www.4shared.com/dir/10437217/89c160fc/PS2-Linux_Distro.html and then use the config.txt --> \ps2linux\in...

@noiseand If you look at Mega Man's post in this thread from Nov. 21, you will see sound working on the Slim PSTwo with a patched RTE LIBSD.IRX. I have this working on my version 15 Slim PSTwo now. Sorry if you know this already and your post was that you are trying to make it work without the patch...

In kloader 2.0 (kernelloader) go to "File", then "Restore Defaults", then try to boot.

It may be that you are using PS2-Slim settings for the FAT PS2. You can always go to the File Menu and select Restore Defaults and see if that helps.

The ps2fdisk utility does not accept the same syntax (commands) that fdisk uses. So while I agree that the manual is great, it is a manual for installing PS2-Linux on a hard drive without special Sony partitions already on it. You want a comparable manual for installation of PS2-Linux alongside othe...

The second link is correct, specifically this sublink:

http://playstation2-linux.com/download/ ... #partition

@suhm

If you use fdisk instead of ps2fdisk you might have a problem with your partitioning. Read the link - http://playstation2-linux.com/projects/apa

It explains far better than I can.

If you have backups and other apps, you most certainly should be using the ps2fdisk command for partitioning - http://playstation2-linux.com/projects/apa Even if you don't want to use my installer (http://www.4shared.com/dir/10437217/89c160fc/PS2-Linux_Distro.html - ps2linux_v0.7.zip) to fully insta...

I'm interested in this port. Any links?

@Mega Man Thanks, I remember this now... perfect for mounting from my Ubuntu VM and transferring my files! I think we have the bulk transfer problem and shared partition for ps2-linux / homebrew covered thanks to you. Just needed your kernel fix, a little command line scripting, and the apascan pack...
