However, IF we really want to use Linux in new HDD, we cant use the restore utility. We can only choose either to
a) create OtherOS partition
OR
b) restore from external HDD
The restore utility will just wipe the OtherOS partition created in the new HDD before the restoring (even though it is empty) and will leave the HDD with a single PS3 partition. It's like an endless cycle: If we want to repartition to allocate 10GB for OtherOS partition, the data in the HDD will be lost. After creating the OtherOS partition, any restoring process will result in a single PS3 partition again..
The backup/restore utility works fine on mine. It didn't wipe out my OtherOS partition. This post has been edited by woo: Apr 26 2008, 10:23 AM |
