About the project
Linux bootloader for PS5 consoles on firmware 8.xx–13.60, a port of ps5-linux-loader using the Byepervisor-Reborn hypervisor escape. Lets users boot Linux on PS5 units where the older loader no longer works.
Useful for
- Boot Linux on a PS5 running firmware 9.xx or newer by sending the ELF payload
- Build pLinux5-NG.elf from source with the PS5 payload SDK and pLabs5 toolchain

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 13, 2026, 21:52 UTC.
The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.
Stars per day
Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.
Why it’s trending
- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-13 (UTC), 20:02–21:45: 106 → 113 stars (+7). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +8 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 0 days old and already has 113 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #187.
- About 35 forks a day — people are taking the code.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
