I have a ps5 that has been offline for about a year now. At some point I need to fire it up and see if I can do this.

Although I have heard since the original dude quit the project it has become an ai endeavor.

The current exploit was found with AI and released (after it was found and kept secret by the original dev in the hopes of keeping GTA VI runnable) but the other infrastructure is still basically the same as it ever was. Post jailbreak, running the Linux ELF loader you're booting a pretty standard Linux kernel and distro.

If you're interested in PS5 Linux, I wouldn't let the drama over the exploit get in your way.

That said, until it can reboot without involving another Linux machine to deliver the payload, it's a fun trick but you might as well just buy the SoC for $250, a Steam Machine, or build a PC to have a better supported Linux flow.
