I was wondering if anyone though of installing FreeBSD in a PS3, i'm sure there are some big challanges there. The Hardware seems to be extremely powerful and there is people running different linux flavors on it. There is a lot to be done there, the cell processor will probably require a long term effort, the blue ray device drivers, keyboard and mouse are USB so i don't think that will be a problem for BSD, the video card is designed for the PS3, will NVIDIA provide support as before, not sure. In other words this is a new architecture. Some of the questions i have right now are: Is possible to the Sony/IBM/Toshiba documents for the Cell Processor ? Is there any specific linux patch set for the PS3 ? ( Looks like there is none, will have more info once i try both installs ) What is the approach of LINUX with the cell processor and the 8 cores ? The NVIDIA RSX video Card was designed for the PS3, any chance they will support this ? I'm receiving one next weekend and i was wondering if there is a group of developers thinking on this, i will love to see FreeBSD running in a cell processor. Comments are appreciated.
