Linux On Unmodded Xbox, Improved

Posted by timothy on from the ms-linux-ready-for-launch dept.

An anonymous reader writes "It looks like pSyCo from XEmulation.com Has found a way to boot Xbox Linux Live on an unmodified Xbox with nothing but an Xbox and Linux PC (no memory card of any kind, etc). Also a guide to using this method to flash your Xbox's onboard TSOP with the bios of choice, making the Xbox modded without an actual mod-chip. $5 to rent 007 to mod my xbox sounds nice =) Check it out at: XEmulation.net Forum or XboxHacker.net BBS. *Wonder what the DMCA would think about this...*" This builds on the "007"-based method discussed earlier.

    Other than it annoys Billy Gates there is no point to this effort. The hardware is now outdated, and not even suited for any applications due to the limited storage and memory.

    Modding an XBox is unAmerican
    You will ROT in HELL for trying to take away the RIGHTFUL profit of a GREAT American company, Microsoft.
    Why would you want to mod a perfectly good XBox to put opensource CRAP in it
    America is GREAT
    Microsoft is American
    opensource is unAmerican and EVIL
    DEATH to opensource.
    Watch some TV you liberal SCUM
    Look at the iraqi people who are rejoicing and praising our GREAT President for getting rid of saddam and his THUGS (and guiding the stupid iraqis through with government---of course they will not say this parentisized part because they are too stupid to understand they are stupid)
    ONLY the American way is RIGHT.
    This is YET ANOTHER PROOF

    Sorry that my world doesn't revolve around making more money for media and software monopoly. I suppose I need to go to reeducation camps so I can remember who pays the bills in this fine country of ours.
