[Cbe-oss-dev] Fedora 18

[sony fedora]

Ok, I just copied the iso files to a USB instead and installed from there.  Everthing seems to work great.   I also realized I didn't have internet access because I had no wireless connection set up.  Once I got the red ribbon linux working I could set up the wireless. Thanks!

Thanks all,
  I was trying to install red-ribbon since it seems targeted for the PS3, but I wasn't able to use wget after booting with petitboot.  (I got Geoff's version from his website and then used ctrl-alt f1 to get into the terminal.)  
  I could ping 127.0.0.1, but any exteral address said "bad address".  I was able to go on the internet from gameOS though.
 
  I will keep playing around this weekend with different methods or to try install different flavors of linux, but please let me know how I can access the internet from the petitboot terminal.  The red-ribbon site mentioned Bootos-petitboot.  Is this different than Geoff's version?  
 
  Will update my tinkering results.
 
Thanks again.
