The only way to completely remove YDL is to reformat your
PS3's hard drive.
Note that this will also wipe all installed games and game
saves from the
drive also. If you want to keep these you'll need to copy
them to some form
of removable media (smart card, USB memory stick, etc.)
before reformatting
and then restore them afterwards.
That said, are you sure that you want to remove YDL? Or do
you just want it
to always boot into the game OS instead of YDL?
It's not obvious how to get back into the game OS when
booted into YDL but
an easier way is to just shutdown the PS3 (hold your finger
on the power
button until it beeps, then remove your finger and then wait
for the red
light (might take a few minutes from YDL)) and then reboot
keeping your
finger on the power button until it beeps again. This will
reset the PS3
settings to factory defaults such that it will again by
default boot into
the game OS.
At this point you can ether reformat the hard drive so that
the PS3 uses the
entire drive again or change the default OS so the PS3 will
boot back into
YDL.
