Knoppix on Playstation2

**leco** · 03-09-2004, 10:06 PM

Hello people!!

Is there an effort to bring knoppix to the PS2 console?? It would be very useful for those who like linux but cannot pay US$200 for the Sony Linux Kit.

I think that the answer for the above question is NO. But it is a good idea...
The distro could be based on BlackRhino GNU/Linux and accept any USB keyboard and mouse. Could come in DVD format... This is just an idea...

What do you think??

Xebian is more or less the equivalent of KNOPPIX on xbox. It is also possible to change KNOPPIX a bit to make it run on xbox too though I don't see the advantage as there is only one kind of hardware on xbox which does require the auto probing etc. of KNOPPIX(which may be bad for xbox).

But if you just want a boot from CD xbox linux, it is already there(xebian).
