    Actually, I think the latest softmod exploit is the ndure installer,
which is nice because it allows you to dual boot the XBox and still play on
XBox Live, if you're into that sort of thing.  I've got mine set up so that
you press the "Eject" button to go to MythTV/Xebian and the Power button for
normal XBox games.

    Check out the forums on http://xbox-scene.com

  If you have a 1.6 xbox, I recommend getting a modchip if you plan to put a
bigger HD in. If you don't plan to upgrade the HD, I would use Softmod
Installer Deluxe 3, which come in the Auto Installer Deluxe 3 package. Use a
game exploit to run the Softmod Installer.

  For linux and Myth, I use xebian installed within the xbox filesystem, no
linux partitions. This is convenient because the whole distro can be copied
from one xbox to another. Perhaps this could be distributed? Only things to
edit are IP Address and host file, and you would have a working xebian
distro with Myth configured. Sound interesting? Let me know. I could zip it
all up and make a torrent.
