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.

  7. What does Commander Data run? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Does anyone know what type of operating system Commander Data runs? It seems that if Linux really does take over the world some day that an android such as Data would be running Linux. I've never seen him crash, so I'm assuming he isn't running OS X or the equivalent.

    Are they running their web server on such an Xbox ? Already slashdotted.....

    I know, I know!
    I'll write some kool kode to get modded funny on Slashdot!
    Here goes:

    funcTiredJoke(string SlashdotHeadlines){
    • While(SlashdotNewArticle==TRUE){

      • strSubject = funcGetSystemorHardwareorDevice(strArticleSubject) ;

      • print "Are they running their web server on " + strSubject + " ? Already slashdotted...."; //watch the karma pour in
        sleep(10); //wait for new article
        SlashdotHeadlines = funcGetSlashdotHeadlines;
      }
    }

    Just imagine the possiblities!!!! (oooh, and I get karma for posting code)...
