Installing OtherOS

1.(Optional) Run udp_printf_client on your PC to see UDP broadcast debug messages sent by OtherOS utils
2.Delete VFLASH region 6 with delete_vflash6
3.Delete VFLASH region 5 with delete_vflash5
4.Create VFLASH region 5 with create_vflash5
5.Create VFLASH region 6 with create_vflash6
6.Resize VFLASH storage device with resize_vflash.
All data on HDD will be lost after this step, so make a backup!

7.Reboot GameOS
8.Create VFLASH region 7 with create_vflash7
9.Store dtbImage.ps3.bin on USB device, plug it in and store petitboot on VFLASH region 5 with install_otheros
Booting OtherOS

1.Set OtherOS boot flag on VFLASH region 5 with boot_otheros
2.Reboot GameOS with reboot
Booting Linux with petitboot's CUI

1.Place kboot.conf file in /etc directory of your Linux
2.Entries contained in the kboot.conf file are showed in petitboot's CUI
3.Select one entry with keyboard and press 'Enter'
Example of kboot.conf

gentoo_vflash=/boot/vmlinux-2.6.38-gf77c53d root=/dev/ps3vflashh2
gentoo_vflash_hugepages=/boot/vmlinux-2.6.38-gf77c53d root=/dev/ps3vflashh2 hugepages=1Installing Debian

This will download gitbrew's packaged Debian ISO, partition your newly created vflash, mount the image, unload all drivers and then boot the Debian image.

1.cd /tmp/
2.wget gititbit.ch/boot
3.chmod a+x initimg.sh
4../initimg.sh update
5../initimg.sh auto
After installing Debian...

1.umount /dev/ps3vflashh3
2.mount /dev/ps3vflashh3 /tmp/petitboot/mnt/ps3vflashh3
3.cd /tmp/petitboot/mnt/ps3vflashh3/
4.wget http://7track.org/~glevand/public/ps3linux_kernel.tar.bz2
5.tar xvjf ps3linux_kernel.tar.bz2
6.cd /tmp/petitboot/mnt/ps3vflashh3/etc/
7.wget gititbit.ch/kboot
And just like that -- OtherOS is back on your PS3 -- your Slim too!

I've tried it twice now with no luck. I get to the part where you have to install otheros, but my PS3 doesn't beep twice like his does. And when I reboot it using the reboot package it just takes me back to the XMB. It doesn't load petit boot. Any suggestions??? BTW I have a slim 3.55 Thanks.
