Re: [ps2hacking-devel] Who is running this show?

John--

I strongly suggest you wait until Sony releases the US
PS2 Linux.  It comes with online documentation
explaining every programmable componenets in PS2, CPU,
VPU, MPU, Controller ports, Controllers, demo programs
with source codes, etc.  I do currently running a
linux on my PS2 and that's how I know.  I've been
hearing that US linux will be release very soon. 
Please wait.

sincerely
