Ok I am trying to put linux on to psp specifically the lowest spec Ubuntu which gives these minimum requirements.

Absolute minimum installation
The absolute minimum Ubuntu installation provides only a command-line interface and installs very few packages. You can add additional packages and a graphical interface manually.

In order to install the absolute minimum installation, use the Alternate Installation CD.

It is possible that you will be able to install Ubuntu on computers with lower specifications than those given below. However, installation may be extremely difficult and Ubuntu is likely to run very slowly on such a system.

Absolute minimum requirements
Intel 486 processor
32 MB of system memory (RAM)
300 MB of disk space

i think the way linux has been put on psp in the other guides uses bochs tool I dont have a clue about linux never used it befor apart from a striped down version on an acer aspire one. I dident like it at all so I put xp on my pc which no seems stupid couse if I had percerverd with it i might be having an easier time of it now.

Anyway I geuss what im locking for is a guide on how to put linux on psp that is written for the layman and also if anyone else has tried putting ubuntu on to thier psp and could point me in the right direction also the uclinux distro that has been made for psp is there anyway to tack the drivers from it so i could use the face buttons for controlling my version of linux.

yeah its the same bochs tool i have seen i am trying it now but not with much succes plus im not sure if it will work as its an emulator not an install i think it will eat up most of the psp's ability but still its the best idea i can come up with seen as im not in to linux at all anyway your guide looks a bit easier than the one im using will post when i have any joy
