Is it possible to access to ps3 filesystem from linux?

I guess the answer is no, and that this is controlled by hypervisor, but what would be the stes to develop a driver? what hypervisor calls are needed to access to ps3 filesystem?

The same hypervisor call is used to read any sector of the disk, the HV
will simply refuse access to sectors outside of the OtherOS area.

No. Even if you try to access the disk by removing it and putting it into a PC, you'll discover all the GameOS region is encypted.
