If you're on ARM64 Linux, first install the x86-64 cross-compilation tools before:
```bash
sudo apt install gcc-x86-64-linux-gnu binutils-x86-64-linux-gnu

Either download [ps5-linux-loader.elf](https://github.com/ps5-linux/ps5-linux-loader/releases/), or install [ps5-payload-sdk](https://github.com/ps5-payload-dev/sdk) and compile it yourself:

Send the payload with your `$PS5IP` (shown on the page):
```bash
sudo apt install gcc-x86-64-linux-gnu binutils-x86-64-linux-gnu

Find your PS5 IP at `Settings → Network → View Connection Status`.
```bash

```
If all is successful, the payload will automatically go into rest mode. Wait until the orange LED stops blinking and becomes static. Only then, press the power button again to boot your PS5 into Linux. If the boot is successful, **the LED should turn white**. If it boots back into PS5 OS, then it's because you pressed the power button too early. Or, you did not enable rest mode features as described above.
