From http://www.terrasoftsolutions.com/support/hardware/breakdown/index....

"With YDL v5.0, the PS3 is fully supported with the exception of the NVIDIA graphics card (see note on Graphics).

You will require a USB keyboard, USB mouse, and USB drive ('thumb', 'jump', or drive) or memory stick (Sony, SD, Compact Flash) in addition to a PC or Mac from which you will download and transfer the bootloader and bootloader installer to the PS3. Details of this process are given in the YDL v5.0 Guide to Installation.

The Nvidia graphics card is not supported beyond framebuffer mode. This does does not reduce the quality of the image, but does not provide accelerated video nor OpenGL support.

At this time, system sound and .ogg files are fully functional. However, neither playing nor ripping audio CDs functions. Stay tuned for updates ..."
