Amiga OS 4.X on PS3
« on: September 11, 2011, 06:42:59 PM »
So, I was browsing arstechnica.com and decided to search "Amiga", and I found this article from 2009 http://arstechnica.com/software/news/2008/09/amigaos41-ars.ars/5 ,
In this article it it claimed that AmigaOS 4 can be run on PS3 " A Hyperion developer told me that not only has the OS been run on a  PS3, but they have even tested support for the seven SPU units in the  Cell processor."
Does anyone can backup these claims and was actually be able to install Amiga OS on PS3?
If this is true, I would erase Linux from PS3 and install Amiga OS in no time. (I did not upgrade my PS3, so it's still on it :))

In the chance that developers did get it running on the PS3 (unlikely, since the article is from the PS3's "pre-jailbroken" days in 2008), they'll never release it publically for some illogical business reason.
You could install Linux few days or few weeks after the PS3 was released, only recently the PS3 was locked. That's what I did.
