This thing trigger me, it already took me a long time to figure out how to format my xbox hd (10gb 7 partitions) with this distro, i finally made it but i had to prepare the hd with a XDebian distro.. Then, i managed somehow to install the mandriva on the xbox but i cannot figure out how booting this instal This Mandriva-Linux-2005-Limited-Edition-XBOX-Mini.xbox.iso come along with a Mandriva-Linux-2005-Limited-Edition-XBOX-boot.xbox.iso ( ftp://ftp.free.fr/mirrors1/ftp.mandrake-l.../iso/10.2/i586/ ) Readme.txt from the boot disc: Mandriva Linux LE2005 XBOX boot.iso Apr. 22, 2005 Stew Benedict <sbenedict@mandriva.com> This iso should be bootable on a modded XBOX console, allowing one to use the standard Mandriva Linux LE2005 isos or network install to install the distribution on the XBOX. See the XBOX dir for a kernel and initrd to boot the system, as well as an xromell executable (from the cromwell rpm). See: http://qa.mandriva.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/MdkXbox and http://www.xbox-linux.org for more info. linuxboot.cfg: # entries below based on kernel/initrd being in E:\mandrake # linuxboot.cfg should be in E:\ # xromwell.xbe could be anywhere your dashboard can find it # root= entries are examples, edit for your setup title LE2005-ide kernel /mandrake/vmlinuz-2.6.11-6mdkxbox initrd /mandrake/initrd-2.6.11-6mdkxbox.img.ide append root=/dev/hda3 title LE2005-usb kernel /mandrake/vmlinuz-2.6.11-6mdkxbox initrd /mandrake/initrd-2.6.11-6mdkxbox.img.usb append root=/dev/sda3 default LE2005-ide My Mandriva is intalled on the E drive but i'm stuck here, i really don t konw how to edit this configuuration file to make it booting this mandriva..
