    PS3 & Linux???

    Have many people done this on their PS3 and what was their main reason for doing this?

    IMHO, the only reason I would to it would be completely to use he Wii remote on it.

    EG: Install Linux > Run Windows emulation > use Wiimote

    If you put linux on it, can you still play PS3 stuff? Like, is it dual boot or something?

    Yah.

    In the PS3 system, there is a partition tool, and an option that is labeled: Install Alternate Operating System.

    Pretty cool imo
