My grandfather gave me his old PlaystationCan I install Linux on this thing to learn command line interface and host some stuff on it maybe? What would you use it for? I'm not much into games
>>108810682it plays blurays, can run netflix, hulu, etc
whatever you end up doing with it, for that model of PS5, you're supposed to not let it stand up like that as the liquid metal that cools the CPU might leak out of its designated areaI think Sony might've fixed that issue with the pro model but I assume pro models don't have disc drives.
>>108810682>My grandfather gave me his old Playstationyou can play game... oh yeah, sorry I just thought consoles were known for having many interesting exclusive games to play as they used to for pretty much 20 years now haha silly me>Can I install Linuxmaybe>to learn command line interfacewhat is there to learn even?
>>108810682Get an old PC. An off-lease Dell, HP, or Lenovo SFF machine will give you way fewer headaches than some kludgy PS5 install.
>>108810682sell it and get a pc, you'll save yourself a lot of headaches
