Turn your PS5 into a Steam console: Bazzite in Steam Deck mode, adapted for the PlayStation 5. It boots straight into Steam Gaming Mode, with a full KDE desktop one click away, runs from a USB drive or the M.2 slot, and leaves the PS5 itself untouched: restart or power off and the PS5 starts its own system again.
This is a community project. It is not made or supported by the Bazzite project, Universal Blue or Sony. Ask here or on Discord, not in Bazzite's channels.
Everything is on wiki.ps5-linux.eu: what you need, the install step by step, what works on your console, and how to fix problems.

Downloads: the releases page. Use the release marked Latest; releases marked Pre-release are test builds, even when their number is higher. What changed in which version is in the changelog.
PS5 Bazzite Deck comes in two forms. Legacy is the install most people have: flashed from a full image and updated
with the update command from the release notes. bootc (experimental) is the whole system as one image, updated from
Steam's update button or sudo bootc upgrade and rolled back with sudo bootc rollback; it starts with
bazzite-bootc-loader from the release. ps5-report shows which one you run on its Install line. Each release's notes have
a section for each, with new install and updating. More about bootc: bootc/README.md.

else about Linux on the PS5.
