I've just browsed to /dev/sr0:/ppc/ppc64 and noticed the filename is 
vmlinux_ps3, and the error is vmlinux-ps3 not found. Is that normal to 
interchange '_' and '-'?

Also, trying to run it from there caused a "cannot determine the file type...." 
error. Is this pointing to an invalid dvd issue?

  Hi there,

  I've seen loads of forum posts with the same problem, and it generally seems 
to be users doing something stupid, but this is a list for newbies!

  Some info:
   - when I browse to /mnt/tmp/ there is a folder with a guid-like name which 
contains the dvd structure, and I can browse to ppc/ppc64 and see the file 
there! (so my assumption is the dvd is readable by the ps3? it was written in 
ISO format)
   - I also get the UDF: No VRS found (or something) error when it first trys 
to mount the dvd
   - the iso I downloaded has the same md5 checksum as on the mirror

  So it looks to me like its failed half-way through mounting the drive (cause 
its in the /mnt/tmp folder) which is why it can't find the file on the dev/sr0 
device?

  I've tried manually mounting dev/sr0, and unmounting, but basically I don't 
really know what I'm doing. I also can't find a text editor in kboot to edit 
the fstab file to choose iso9660 ahead of udf, but I also don't know if the No 
VRS message is a red herring?

  Any help will be GREATLY appreciated! I'm competent in the Windows world, but 
after hours of getting absolutely nowhere I need help!

  Cheers,
  Brad.
