And maybe one of them can help me.  I have a Xebian/Debian mix on my
xbox right now and effectively can't use it for anything until the Xorg
driver issue is resolved and/or MythTV is updated.  I'd be interested in
taking this opportunity to learn about Gentoo.  Two questions:

1) Is it possible to transition to Gentoo on the X-Box without doing the
save-game hack again?  I see Xebian bzImage/initrd files in three
different locations on my XBox (I installed Xebian into the E drive) and
don't know which needs to be moved/replaced to cause it to boot to the
minimal kernel for reinstallation.

2) Does MythTV/MythDVD/MythVideo work on Gentoo on XBox or am I just
going to end up in the same place, with an X that's not compatible with
Myth?
