- Select one of the servers listed below. Is works best to select one closest to where you are downloading. Please note that Fixstars has no control over when the latest version
of YDL is available on the public mirrors.
The primary mirror remains fairly busy. If any mirror server is too slow, or no longer accepts anonymous connections, you may either wait a little while and try again, or try a different mirror.
Also consider YDL.net Enhanced in order to gain access to ISOs the moment they are completed followed by on-going updates from your private YDL.net FTP site; or the purchase of Yellow Dog Linux from Fixstars' On-line Store.
- Begin the download:
- Click View Mirror - FTP or View Mirror - HTTP to browse through the directories on that mirror.
- Select the iso directory and then scroll to the bottom of the list and select the most current release of YDL for your hardware.
- There are two YDL 6.1 ISO's, so which YDL 6.1 DVD do I download?
- Click View Mirror - FTP or View Mirror - HTTP to browse through the directories on that mirror.
- Save the Install ISO to your local drive. This is a BIG image, so it may take a while.
- Burn the downloaded image to a DVD as an ISO. The following HOWTOs provide instructions for OSX, Linux, or Windows:
- How to burn a YDL Install DVD using OSX
- How to burn a YDL Install DVD using Linux
- How to burn a YDL Install DVD using Windows
- How to burn a YDL Install DVD using OSX
- Follow the Guide to Install. Make certain you have an HDMI (digital) or component (3 video, 2 audio) cable connection from your PS3 to a hi-def LCD or plasma TV or monitor. Please, don't try doing this with a regular composite (1 video, 2 audio jacks) cable. It's not worth it.
