    Not sure about porting myself, but Runix can be found at http://www.runix.ru/ (albeit, of course, in russian)

  2. Europe by JohnFred · · Score: 2, Interesting · on Sony Announces Version 1.0 Of Linux for Playstation 2


    Given the recent modchip and regional liscencing case, this leaves Europe (SCEEurope's teritorry) as the only region you can't run Linux on the PS2.

    So can Alan Cox be arrested for running Linux on his PS2 in the UK? Hmm. Also, you will note, Blokman Trading the guys who did the "privateer" Linux port to the Playstation have appeare to have dissapeared off the web. What happened to them?

    Sony are in the same class as Microsoft: they seek to create a monopoly by proprietary lock - in, and regional liscencing, so this is the equivalent of MS Linux coming out.

    Yet everyone celebrates...

  3. Re:Can you install linux on it ? by Chakat · · Score: 1 · on XBox Released

    No, I'm talking about a completely independant port of Linux to the original Playstation put out by Ru.nix. Sony had nothing to do with this project whatsoever, except build the hardware.

  4. Re:Fun with Consoles and PDAs! - Sony PSX by spirality · · Score: 1 · on Hackable Christmas Presents?

    The only problem with PS2 Linux is that it's only available on the Japanese Model, and sadly they have no plans to make it available on the American or European versions of the PS2. See PS2 Linux.Com for the sad news.

    On a happier note I've noticed that a Russian Company called Runix has ported the Linux Kernel to PS One. The port doesn't come with installation instructions or anything, but you can get the code.... I wasn't exactly sure what to do with it once I got it though. I don't even have a PSOne.. oh well.

  5. What about Runix? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 1, Interesting · on SDL Has Been Ported to Sony PS2

    What about the version of Linux that Runix was working on? Will the SDL work with that?

  6. *shrugs* It's been done. by andrew_mike · · Score: 1 · on PS2 As PC

    This is already being done right now for the PS1...a Russian group called Runix has a PS1 version of Linux in the alpha stages. The beta version comes out in July.

  7. Correct URL by Phoz · · Score: 1 · on Linux for the PlayStation 1

    The correct download URL is ftp://ftp.ware.ru/pub/unix/linux/kernel/kernel-psx -2.4.0.tar.gz

    Makes me wonder if the slashdot editors asked for permission to link directly. Hotlinking 26 MB. is quite a lot if you are paying for your bandwidth pr. megabyte.

    You are "welcom".
