Early hours this morning many people had turned on their PS3 to see that there was a new firmware update 3.21 to the console. Maybe it's the greatly anticipated 3D capabilities for upcoming games? How about in game picture-in-picture camera viewing?
Nope. Instead they have removed the "Install Other OS" feature which was made available at release with all PS3 models, prior to the slim version. You want to keep your current firmware and continue with Linux? Then you lose all on-line capabilities with your PS3, including on-line gaming and chat/messaging, and neither games nor Blu-ray movies requiring firmware 3.21 will run.
Whatever you decide to do, please remember. You will not be able to roll back to previous firmware versions, and if you have "Other OS" installed on the PS3, all data will not be accessible following the update, so you mustn't forget to backup!
