Homebrew Linux For PS2 Planned?

DCEmumaniac writes "Today news appeared on PS2Vision about work on a homebrew version of Linux for the PlayStation 2 that will not need any hardware modifications to use it. According to the project, which is being hosted on the PS2Dev site: 'The Great Experiment (TGE) is an Open Source PS2/Linux Kit RTE replacement and bootloader. It's being written to provide a binary interface compatible with that of the RTE shipped with the PS2/Linux Kit and other Sony products that use Linux. The end goal is that anyone who owns a PS2 will be able to run Linux (or other programs written to use the RTE, such as NetBSD) on their PS2 without hardware modifications or expensive hardware bundles'."
