Someone's suggestion on IRC about adapting the PS4 linux loading to boot ReactOS

Quoting directly from IRC:
[18:22] (Figarocool): hi!
[18:23] (Figarocool): is someone online?
[18:23] (@gigaherz): yes
[18:23] (Figarocool): you a developer?
[18:24] (Figarocool): a loader was developed for a few days to load linux
on ps4
[18:24] (Figarocool): https://github.com/fail0verflow/ps4-linux
[18:25] (Figarocool): would it be possible to port this to start rectos? it
would be something of great visibility for the reactos project
[18:25] (Figarocool): loader
[18:25] (Figarocool): https://github.com/valentinbreiz/PS4-Linux-Loader
[18:25] (Figarocool): on firmware 4.05
[18:25] (Figarocool): ps4 runs on x86
[18:26] (Figarocool): would it be complicated to do this for you?
[18:26] (@gigaherz): I don't own a ps4 and I'm not an expert in the reactos
booting process, so I'm not the right person to ask
[18:27] (Figarocool): could you open a discussion about this?
[18:28] (@gigaherz): well this is IRC, just talking about it is already a
discussion
[18:28] (@gigaherz): but if you want something more "official"
[18:28] (@gigaherz): you can post this information on an email to the
ros-dev mailing list
[18:28] (@gigaherz): (subscribe to the mailing list if you want to see the
replies)
[18:29] (Thedarkb1): You probably could.
[18:33] (CatButts): hmmm
[18:33] (CatButts): unlike PC, PS4 is single hardware configuration
[18:33] (CatButts): getting ReactOS on a PS4? hmmm, that wouldn't hurt
[18:34] (CatButts): [19:25] <Figarocool> it would be something of great
visibility for the reactos project
[18:34] (Figarocool): check:
https://github.com/valentinbreiz/PS4-Linux-Loader
[18:34] (Figarocool): loader to load linux (x86) and driver
[18:35] (Figarocool): however, since reactos and open would be a great
novelty for the knowledge of the os
[18:35] (Figarocool): so it could give a lot of novelties in the media
aspect
[18:35] (Figarocool): you could think about it
[18:36] (@gigaherz): the loading process of NT is very different from linux
[18:36] (@gigaherz): but as I said, because I'm not the right person to ask
[18:36] (@gigaherz): it would be best if you put the information on the
mailing list
[18:36] (@gigaherz): for all the people interested to read
[18:36] (Figarocool): could you open the discussion on the mail?
[18:37] (@gigaherz): I think it would be best if someone who is actually
interested in it would do so
[18:38] (Figarocool): I also say this because of the media aspect
[18:39] (Figarocool): since they are now installing linux to use the
console as a PC
[18:39] (Figarocool): this would be great using reactos
[18:39] (Figarocool): being x86 all windows games and more would be
compatible
