I have seen talk on this forum about a live linux cd with the toolchain and examples installed. There was a lot of talk about it here and it seemed to be off to a good start. I would like to know if it got anywhere, if so where can I download it, otherwise I would like to know what you would like to see in it alongside the toolchain. If you have any ideas for what should go in it, please include a link so that i can download and include it.

Oh one other thing, where did the ps2sdk go. I looked in the cvs and I couldn't find it. Also when I run the toolchain script it fails because it can't check out the ps2sdk from the cvs.

[edit: ok problem solved I downloaded the new toolchain and it is working now, thanks ooPo]

Ok now that I have my development environment installed would anybody be interested in a live linux cd containing all the ps2 dev toolchain and examples/tutorials?

I'd welcome anything to get people away from cygwin, if possible. :)

The whole toolchain works with plain mingw/msys mind you, which is way lighter than cygwin. But as slow.

Ok I have a working Slax based live cd containing the toolchain, the ps2sdk, all the tutorials and examples from ps2dev, firefox, and ps2client, only problem is I have no place to host it. The whole cd is around 300mb at the moment.

firefox ? :) What the hell are you doing with that for ps2dev ? :P

Anyway, for hosting, I can't help either, but, why not using for once that famous bittorrent protocol in a legal way ? If we can't host 300MB straight, we can at least host some bittorrent trackers.
