Hi Steve,

  I'm certainly interested. There's the CELL simulator to start with, 
but for the PS3, you would have to extract the hypervisor calls from the 
Sony PS3 Linux patches. Getting the FreeBSD loader working on the PS3 
would be a lot easier than the kernel and also a very good milestone.

later,

Peter.
