Nintendo Game Cube Linux - Early Development

Early Development

Development began with the release of a code loading method based on a hack for the game Phantasy Star Online. Upon going online PSO would contact a Sega server. By using a local DNS server under the owner's control, it was possible to make the Sega server's domain name resolve to a computer on an internal network and upload code to the GameCube using a program such as PSOload or PSUL (Later editions of PSOload had a DNS server built in).

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or development:

    “...to many a mother’s heart has come the disappointment of a loss of power, a limitation of influence when early manhood takes the boy from the home, or when even before that time, in school, or where he touches the great world and begins to be bewildered with its controversies, trade and economics and politics make their imprint even while his lips are dewy with his mother’s kiss.”
    —J. Ellen Foster (1840–1910)

    “Men are only as good as their technical development allows them to be.”
    —George Orwell (1903–1950)
