Hello all,
I installed yellow dog 5 today on my ps3. It works great, however I have a question. When i start up my ps3, it will boot to linux. To get back the the ps3 OS, I have to type boot-game-os at the kboot prompt. Can I install somekind of a bootloader to choose which one I want instead of waiting for linux to load and choose there? Like a dual boot or something. Im not too familiar with linux but i think some popular ones are lilo and grub. Anyone know about this?

Please sit back and relax while Windows 98 installs on your computer.

When you turn your PS3 on, if you hold down the power button for about 5 seconds when turning it on, it will bypass the bootloader and boot right to the game OS.
