I attempted to bring @fedora to the PS5 last week, but kept running into challenges I couldn't figure out black screen every time, no way to see why. So I gave the task to Claude Fable 5 , right from where I left off. It baked a diagnostic script into the image that dumps GPU/kernel logs to the boot partition every 8s. One boot later, I had the crash: RIP: gfx_v10_0_early_init 0x415 [amdgpu] It disassembled the module at that exact offset: mov 0x8(%rax),%rax ; loaded GPU firmware addl $0x100,0x18(%rax) ; write into firmware ← CRASH Fable traced the root cause to how the kernel maps firmware memory differently depending on the compression format a subtle incompatibility that only affected Fedora. None of the other PS5 distros hit it. Fix applied. Rebooted Fedora GNOME running on PS5. Code merged into the official ps5-linux image builder alongside Ubuntu, Arch, CachyOS and Kali: github.com/ps5-linux/ps5-lin… 📸 Fable finds the kernel crash 📸 Image published for testing 📸 Fedora GNOME on the PS5
