A member of the PS3Hax forum has posted this weekend early screenshots of a custom PlayStation 3 operating system, one that can be installed if you have a jailbroken PS3 console.
The developer has dubbed the custom OS "PlayOS."
PlayOS is Linux-based, will run on firmware 3.41, and will take 730MB of external HDD since it runs off the Backup Manager.

but sony will block you from playing any new games or online activities for installing this, they will probably harvest users IP addresses and send litigation letters demanding $1000,000,000,000, as they do from their other company's the MPAA & RIAA & all their global affiliates, once they get to your home they will probably just shoot you dead as its cheaper than litigation....

Following up on yesterday's story about the PS3 being hacked by one of its own official controllers, there's now a guide in English that details how to mod a Sixaxxis controller. But thanks to the very latest releases, if you don't like soldering you can now use an iPod, a Pandora console or even a Dingoo console. Finally, Jaicrab has released a USB firmware loader which will come in handy once the first custom firmware for the PS3 is released. Maybe then we will get region-free Blu-ray, PS1 and PS2 games.

Remove the updates from the games. And I'd rather have homebrew than PSN online lol. I do have XBLive though.

EDIT : Also, this PS3 OS is a rumor at best, said to be fake by reputable sources.

Personally not really interested in a OS the runs from the game menu homebrew anyway, I rather see some CFW.

From the sounds of it, this is just a hacked-up linux distro that is designed to run the same way that games do. There is no reason why this should not be possible...personally, I am desperately waiting for someone to port Yellow Dog or Ubuntu to a "game". I would rather see a true CFW (with OtherOS support), but I know that will probably take a lot longer.
The sixaxis JB is just a normal PIC-based jailbreak mounted inside the sixaxis; it is not a port to the sixaxis. That said, it is still possible we will see such ports to the actual sixaxis chip.

Would it not be cool you boot up the OS and it runs games and is able to multi task while you play a game?
Copyright infringement is nothing more than civil disobedience to a bad set of laws. Lets renegotiate them.
