What, no pics?
I finally reinstalled my PS3 with YDL 6.0 on a 320 GB HDD!
I don't own a LCD-TV with HDMI, but the HDMI->DVI cable works fine with my 24" monitor
I killed three screwdrivers to change the 40 GB HDD to a 320 GB one I had to drive to my grandfather for additional tools, now I owe him two screwdrivers After putting the HDD into a bench vise I managed it to get the last screw away to replace the disk
But now the dnetc-client is up and running again. Later I'll do some testing with samba and vnc and then make it headless again and put it back into the cabinet.

sorry, I forgot
my mobilephone doesn't make that good pictures and my digicam need full charged batteries five minutes ago I wanted to make pictures for you but the camera said "empty batteries"
I'll give you some later that day...
BTW: vnc sucks, with Mandriva or Debian I got better results after 5 minutes of work

OK, after editing the ~./vnc/xstartup to the content a Mandriva has, it works beautiful, now I get something to see I'm used to...

The PS3 has really not much memory, 256 MB RAM and I think 256 MB for graphics, but the dnet client doesn't need that much, only a few MBs...
Running Azureus for Bittorrent I can forget, because the supplied java version is not matching to the one Azureus would need, and on java.com you can't download a suitable version
So my Linux experience after that few trials is: very slow! for running just dnetc or other distributed computed clients it is ok, but if you want to do more: use a real machine with memory!

temperature in my room exceeds 25°C (77°F) and my PS3 got loud, fans are working like crazy! I have to shut it down until temperatures go to normal... maybe until September or October
but then OGR may have finished and I really have no use for it alpha, it might be your turn

funny thing is that my PS3 never did something like that... but the last few days it got hot like in summer and the temperature in my room raised over 25°C. today I went to the toilette and when I came back the fans of that PS3 yelled very loud, louder than usual.

never change a running system, but did you ever update your system-software of a PS3 in the game-OS? during re-install I updated it from 2.01 (or something like that) to 2.35. might that cause the loud fans?
BTW: a pic of the screwdriver and the HDD attachment
