Limitations

This PlayStation 2 Linux kernel is work in progress, and so far only a minimum of devices for a useful system have been ported to the latest kernel version.

PlayStation 2 Linux runs R5900 executables and, under certain restrictions described by the R5900 processor specific ABI (psABI), also generic MIPS I, MIPS II and MIPS III executables.
