    Well...it was bound to happen that people would get sick of the RH install with the PS2Linux.

    Basically, this is a basic port of Gentoo Linux to run on the PS2. Someone is developing a homebrew RTE that will boot any free Linux Distros, that can be used with these files.

    Go here for the files and here to read up on Gentoo Linux

    Right on! I've been using my gentoo machine for a while now... Guess I'll have to install it on my PS2 as well *G*

    My friend's playing madden 2004 on it right now, or I'd start now

    I'll get around to it later tonight.

    So is that the legal use of homebrew HDD drivers some people have been talking about?
    One more thing, does it have a software VGA output (like the $ony linux kit)?
