Playstation 2 Linux Live DVD 17.01.2010
############################
This is a Linux Live system for the Sony Playstation 2.
You need to start kloader.elf from the DVD to run Linux.
If you used kernelloader before, you need to delete the
file: mc0:/kloader/config.txt or plug out the memory card.
This is the first Linux Live DVD which where created for
the Playstation 2. There is no modchip required. A modchip
may disturb the normal function of this software.
You can get more information here:
http://kernelloader.sourceforge.net
You can find some information about PS2 Linux here:
http://psx-scene.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=167
This distribution works with PAL and NTSC (I only tested
PAL). Other stuff like DTV or SVGA is not auto-detected
and may lead to green or pink screens.
The Linux distribution is based on the Linux distribution
from Deba5er which was based on Blackrhino. Thanks to
Deba5er for this work.
The highlights of this distributions are:
1. Web browser: dillo (the colors are changed to be more
readable on TVs)
2. Internet radio: xmms (for audio support you need
additonal modules)
3. Video player: mplayer (which can play *** videos)
The following hardware is needed:
1. Fat PS2 with HDD/Network adapter or a slim PSTwo.
2. USB keyboard supported by Linux 2.4.17.
3. USB mouse supported by Linux 2.4.17
4. The DVD which include this file.
WARNING: Writing on USB memory devices using a slim PSTwo
may destroy your data. The error happens on heavy USB
bulk transfers. The fat PS2 doesn't have this problem.
This DVD was created by Mega Man.
Files on this disc:
###################
/VIDEO_TS Needed for video DVDs
/AUDIO_TS Needed for video DVDs
/DISC.BIN Ext2 image which include the Linux distribution
/KLOADER.ELF Boot loader for Linux (kernelloader)
/INITRD.GZ Initial RAM disc for startup and later used for changed files (Ext2)
/VMLINUX.GZ Linux kernel
/SYSTEM.CNF Configuration file for ESR (not tested)
/CONFIG.TXT Configuration file for kernelloader
/README.TXT This file
/SRC/LINUX.TGZ Linux kernel source code
/SRC/CONFIG Linux kernel configuration
/SRC/COMMENT.TXT Comments by Deba5er
/SRC/KLOADER.TGZ Source code for kernelloader
Notes:
1. The root file system is mounted read only (DISC.BIN).
2. The root file system include links to /oldroot (INITRD.GZ)
to make parts of the file system writeable. A layered
file system like unionfs is not used.
3. To store so much links in the initial RAM disc, the number
of inodes is higher than normal for the given size.
4. The network in Linux is configured to use DHCP.
5. To get sound working you need to copy old versions of
LIBSD.IRX and SDRDRV.IRX to mc0:kloader. The version
number of SDRDRV.IRX should be 2.0 or smaller. You need
to enable these modules in the kernelloader. For this you
need to interrupt the auto boot and save the configuration
after you enables the modules.
6. The music in the video of this DVD is free music and the
name of the title is "Million Tears" from "Groove Coverage".
7. You can use GooTube to download *** videos:

8. To get around the pink screen on DTV, you need the SBIOS
from RTE (Sony offical Linux disc 1). But this configuration
doesn't support DVDs. So it can't be used. But you can copy
DISC.BIN on a USB memory stick (see kernel parameter "cdrom").
I suggest to copy it to the root directory. This also seems
to work stable with slim PSTwo, because it doesn't write to
the USB stick.
9. If you have modchip, you may want to rebuild the disc in
DVD-ROM format instead of DVD video format.
10.The PS2 has only 32 MByte of memory and some parts are used
for the initial RAM disk. It is recommended to activate a
swap partition (see kernel parameter "swapdevice").
Important kernel parameters:
############################
The kernel parameters can be changed in the kernelloaders
configuration menu. You need to stop the auto boot and
save the configuration (memory card is needed).
Video mode PAL (auto detected):
videomode=pal
xmode=PAL
Video mode NTSC (auto detected):
crtmode=ntsc
xmode=NTSC
Video modes HDTV (pink screen, not tested):
crtmode=dtv2
xmode=dtv,480p
crtmode=dtv2
xmode=dtv,720p
crtmode=dtv2
xmode=dtv,1080i
Note: xmode is used for the X-Server (the graphical part
where you can use a mouse).
Loading from CDROM (default):
cdrom=/dev/cdrom
Loading from USB (if you copied DISC.BIN to an USB memory stick):
cdrom=/dev/sda1
Loading of DISC.BIN (default):
newroot=/cdrom/DISC.BIN
Note: The "cdrom" must be also used if you use an USB memory stick.
You can activate a swap partition from a USB memory stick. So the
Linux kernel can use more memory:
swapdevice=/dev/sda2
Note: You need first to create it using the Linux commands "fdisk"
and "mkswap".
Normal startup: 5 seconds (default):
autostart=5
Faster startup: 3 seconds:
autostart=3 |
