The PS2 Linux kit ships with a version of Kondara Linux, which is based on RedHat Linux 5.2. The distribution's installer (anaconda) has been tailored towards the Playstation 2's hardware making installation a relatively straight forward process.
There are two DVD discs in the distribution, the first one is primarily a bootloader and rescue disc, the second is the software distribution. There are 581 binary RPM packages that are included with the system along with 389 source RPM packages.
The distribution is a relatively complete one, including a tailored X-Windows server, most common server packages and user applications.
