The 2.6 kernel does not have support for FATX partitions.  This is no
problem if you wish to commit your XBox to Linux 100% of the time.
However, I would like to continue to use my XBox for playing XBox
games and XBMC, and as such; must run Xebian as an application
installed on my FATX-drive.  Therefore, those of us wanting to keep
the XBox as an XBox need to stay with kernel 2.4.
