ok i decided to go with linux i downloaded yellow dog and tried using nero to burn it to cd i used a 4.7gb DVD cd and nero only seen 2gb on the cd and said it wouldn't fit (ydl being 3.5gb) :roll:
would i need to find/buy a new burner software ?
or should i try using a flash driver ?

Try another disc, that may be a bad blank DVD.

Sorry, I know nothing about modded PS3s, so I don't know if a regular wifi dongle will work. I know my friend tried one on his unmodded PS3, it didn't work.
