Hi everyone,...
Here's my bit and hope it helps,...

Yes,... yellowdog-6.0-DVD_20080207.iso is the right version for the PS3.
     There's another version, an earlier one dated on the 5th of Feb 2008 =20
     but i can't find it anywhere,... so might as well settle for this =20
     version.
     I have successfully installed the 20080207 version on mine PS3 last =20
     night and it works fine with the CELL SDK v3.0.
     Only thing is,...it's kindda slow,... any ideas why,guys?

     regards,
     Cornelius
