If we use an external hard disk or an USB pendrive, the installer will erase data from this storage device. The installer never deletes the files stored on the space of GameOS. The creation, alteration or removal of the partitions by the installer never affects the space of GameOS. Manually: It will load cfdisk, a partition manager to create partitions manually.Automatically: The installer will delete the existing partitions and It will create the new partitions by default.If we have an storage device, we need to create the partitions: When we haven't a reserved space and we haven't connect an external storage device, the installer tells us that the installation can't continue. If we select NO, we are asked to select the storage device manually. If we don't have this reserved space, the installer doesn't show us this message. When an OtherOS reserved space exists on the internal hard disk, the installer will ask you if you want to use it for the installation. On the next step, we will select the storage device for installation. We can change it or leave the default ones. Now, we can enter the hostname and the domain/workgroup. On the next step, the installer shows you the start installation message, we press OK to continue. When the installer begins, It shows some screens where we can select the continent, the country, the timezone and the language.

If we have burned the CD before, we can copy the entire CD contents to the pendrive.Īlso, we can unpack the ISO file using a compressed file manager and we can copy the unpacked files into the pendrive. We need a FAT formatted USB pendrive and the CD installation. This method is useful when the PS3 has a damaged reader device. If it only contains a file, you have not burned it with "Burn CD/DVD Image" method. Once you have downloaded the ISO image file, you can burn it to CD/DVD using the "Burn CD/DVD Image" method of your recording software.Īfter burning, the CD will contain multiple folders and files.
