Key information
This tutorial will cover how to install Linux on your PS5. It is created to make it easier for people to install linux on their consoles.

All your info should stay intact because you will install it on a seperate M.2 drive.

- Support for 1.xx and 2.xx firmwares may be added in the future, but we will not prioritize this effort.
If you want to update to a specific firmware, download the correct PUP and follow the official guide to upgrade your PS5.

If you prefer a video guide, I recommend Modded Warfare's on YT. As is the nature with videos, it may not be up to date with the content here.
