Could you build this?

No A Linux loader for PS5 firmware 12.xx depends on exploit chains against the console's kernel and secure boot, which requires specialized security research.

What it would actually take: This needs a working exploit for the PS5's kernel and bootloader at each firmware version, plus payload development to load Linux. It requires reverse engineering the firmware, custom kernel-level code, and hardware testing on physical consoles. Building it takes elite exploit-development expertise and access to hardware, not AI-assisted coding.
