Geez, why would anyone care? This is more masturbational than
running Linux on a Palm.
The PSX hasn't enough memory to do much simultaneously- the flaw
of most videogame systems made before memory got a lot cheaper-
though it's got the computrons and graphics hardware to fake this
if you really cared- and could live with a TV-res display.
Sorry I haven't any solid info, but I'm serious about countering
your query with another question: why do so many people seem to
think running Linux on anything with a microprocessor is cool?
