Hi Rob, After installing Ubuntu by default you will get the kboot bootloader.From here if you want to boot the game os, its just a mater of typing "game" or a command similar to that, the kboot bootloader screen documents it and that boots you into the PS3 and makes that default until you change it in the PS3 operating system.Also just hitting return or waiting will boot into ubuntu.
