no there's not. you hafta have the hard drive for all 3 distros of linux for the PS2. (red hat, debian, & gentoo). and the debian and gentoo distros were compilied on the fact that you have the red hat version installed (not available for NTSC format anymore).

no you cant install it on a usb hdd it has to be an internal hdd.ps2 linux looks for the internal hdd to install itself on. so basically you need the fat ps2 with a hdd in it and the playstation 2 linux kit.
