No A PS5 Linux distribution needs a working console exploit, kernel and bootloader work, and hardware-specific drivers. Those are low-level systems and security skills that vibe coding cannot provide.
What it would actually take: Building this requires a PS5 exploit chain for the Slim firmware version, a custom Linux kernel with PS5-specific drivers for GPU, audio, and storage, and a bootloader that supports dual boot from the console. The launcher and Proton integration are the easier layers on top. The work demands kernel development, console security research, and graphics driver expertise.
