Hey there guys,
I'm having huge problems while trying to install Ubuntu on my PS3, and of course, I need help. And yeah, I did check the similar threads here but none of them seems to solve my problem.
Well, here is what I did:
I used this guide (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PlayStation_3). But, I'm so dumb and I mistakenly skipped the "Prepare the PlayStation 3" step, so I didn't create a spare partition. Ubuntu is my main menu right now... Now I have Ubuntu on my Live CD burned, and it loads. The "Ubuntu PS3 Loader" black, first screen shows up but the USB stuff won't work there, so I can't type the boot-game-os to go back to the PS3 after kboot:. Well, after some time Ubuntu boots up for itself, and I try installing it to the disk but the only partition there is the CD inserted, and obviously I can't make it there.
Well, I tried using the terminal to go back XMB and that doesn't work either. So, I'm almost totally stuck here. I'm just wondering what the heck do I have to do to go back to the XMB?
