Lots of you guys may think it's crazy but I would bet osx will be running on PS3 within a year, even if I have to do it myself :2cents:

Yep its possible first get linux on ps3 then get a Pear PC then get a ISO Image of MAC OS X iso from torrents then Boot it up there

Yes, this can be a future as long as the hypervisor get bypassed.

Even When you install Linux on PS3 it will load as a set size to 10gb in a virtual enviroment.

The hardware limited to 2 cpu instead of all 8 cores (is it perhaps 7? :S )

 

So, If you get hold of the SDK for PS3 and get passed the hypervisor..then we can run leopard on that with a EFI bootloader.

 

quote by Ken Kutaragi:

 

 

"The kernel will be running on the Cell, and multiple OSes will be running on top of that as applications. Of course, the PS3 can run Linux. If Linux can run, so can Lindows. Other PC Operating Systems can run too, such as Windows and (Mac OS) Tiger, if the publishers want to do so."

 

The reason he said Tiger was because he knew it had PPC support...AND

 

check this {censored} out:

the last public info regarding this. :(

 

so..

GET THE SDK and Bypass the Hypervisor. We don't like a Big Brother system do we ? :P

Get any EFI bootloader to run.

Install OSX :)

wow - didn't knew that - that would be the only point to get this ugly thing :P

i'm not a hardcore gamer and i didn't care abour blueray stuff - so i don't need a ps3

but having a iPS3 would be fun (kinda :) )

 

I would buy a PS3 if it was able to run either linux or OSX with full hardware support.

This way you could use this as a monster Rendercluster.

 

A guy already made a rendercluster with several PS3's with linux..

But It would only require 1 PS3 to do the job of all the PS3's on the video if the hypervisor get by passed.

 

 

Come on know.. save up to a SDK ..market value at 100K+? USD then BOOM.. OSX on PS3 :P

If the SDK is gained..you can learn the server protocolls to send your own firmware to it without voiding warrenty for example. Redirected by a router for example.

This way you can make a firmware with full hardware control.

 

Benefits with bypassing hypervisor:

*Disc image support for backup games.

*Silent Beast Render Cluster for apps such as 3d apps, Video Editing apps, Music n so forth.

*Fully functional computer for the student with support for MS office 2008.

*Media centers such as Flex or XMBC with full codec support.

*Your kids/retarded girlfriend can not scratch your expensive blueray disc because they are already backup in side the PS3 and your original blueray collection can therefor be stored in a bankvault.

*Use it as a private torrent-tracker/dc hubb

*Use it as Guitar/Keyboard Amp

*Emulators

*Run WII OS nativly since it is also running PPC

*Run Xbox 360 OS nativly since it is also running PPC

*The last that I can come up with is also ofcource the most important...Download free internet porno in your living room.

 

And ofcource..it runs on max on 250W :P

;) thanks - you made my day

:D

If that got your a*s jumping this should make you run naked.

 

Playstation 3 HACKED

 

And its now

 

OUT

 

Now we are gonna wait until someone actually makes this usable.

New drivers needs to be made for graphics and such.

 

If chameleon can be installed on the PS3 harddrive. We could het OSX Leopard (not SL) on this one.

Now lets wait and see. :)

 

I hope that future is close to summer!

Dont mean to be an {censored} but LMFAO at this thread lol

 

this has probably already been said but this will NEVER and I mean NEVER work and for 2 simple reasons

 

1. mac has moved away from power PC processors G5 and G4 can barely run tiger and leopard and they are macs. also ps3 has a CUSTOM POWER PC processor.

 

2. you'll never be able to install it to the hdd even if you did get the install disc to boot. the ps3 has a hardware "police" agent built into it on a board level that provides code not made for or by sony and its partners from running properly. you should probably wait until we get linux working 100% before trying a FreeBSD unix variation like mac os x

The awsome thing about a forum is that you can follow the thread further up.

The hardware "police" has been taken down..the hypervisor is down. Full hardware access is gained.

Don't you read the links I posted before you try to type down any opinion?

 

Linux does work straight off with the PPC support. It should work properly with some smaller tweaks.

Since Leopard have PPC support. It does not matter if it is a custom PPC cpu as long as we know how it works. the Linux driver already excists.

 

wiered that you comment this when this scene has already made OSX86 possible on PPC,SSE2&3.

Nothing is impossible.

Thats why this scene is here :unsure:

If linux flyies.. then we can make OSX run on that afterwards...

 

there is only 2d support so far.. but if 3d support is gained it should be able to run osx.

Lets see how this goes. :)
