Fail while trying to use ps4 slim as a server

I've posted on here before. I'm having problems trying to load linux on a ps4 Belize B0 (0x20200) with a 1TB HDD.

I keep getting stuck with a blackscreen and a white light whenever I try loading the payload. I have been trying an internal HDD install but it seems like I'll have to buy an external SSD to do this process. For the record I've used multiple kernels, initramfs and distros and I keep getting the same result.

Different vocals???

I noticed that in Pinkpantheress's Mosquito a part of the chorus is purely backing vocal and I only notice this in Tidal.

For comparison I played the YT Music version (1st vid) of the track.

Problematic purchase

I got a wii u second hand off ebay for close to 40€ ( almost 46$ usd ) and it powes up without any av or hdmi output. I'm not fully sure if av video output is possible, but I did try with a wii2hdmi adaptor and no signal came through. I tried a variety of fixes. From replacing the cmos battery to trying to boot to the recovery menu, I couldn't get it to work. For the record I do not own a wii u gamepad as I was planning to use my steam deck with vanilla software instead of one. So I cant pair my steam deck to my wii u and my console isnt providing video. I did manage to get a purple light once with udpih but there was still no video output. The av and hdmi pins look fine, they dont have any rust. The only troubleshooting issue I have in mind is the hdmi chip being problematic, but if that were the case, I would have gotten video output on av. I really dont know what is wrong with this console. It was sold to me as fully functional and now I feel mislead. My power supply is a xiaomi power brick that does up to 120w and a usb-c female to wii u power adaptor. Any help is appreciated.

I have two ps4s. The first one I got 10 years ago which has lots of playtime. It was used by both me, my father and my sister. The second one was gifted to my father in July or August 2020, right before the ps5 release. I mainly used it for fortnite in my room so my father could play his own titles. We got the ps5 day one and ended up mainly using that since my father sometimes used it instead of the first ps4. Fast forward to today my father has his own ps5 at his own place and I have the one from day one with the two ps4s. The second one is just sitting in a drawer of my room. Since I started tinkering with Linux last year and recently got a Steam deck, I wondered if I could use the secondary ps4 as a desktop pc with PSX. I already have a tower pc with Linux Mint and a Steam deck so I wondered if I would waste my time installing Linux on my unused ps4. I would like to know your thoughts. Should I mod it?
