[HELP] how to install on Xbox ?

My cousin donated me a 100% working Xbox, but I don't care of gaming.

According to this Wikipedia page Xbox is:
a legacy-free PC by Microsoft that consists of an Intel Celeron 733 MHz CPU, an nVidia GeForce 3MX, 64 MB of RAM, a 8/10 GB hard disk, a DVD drive and 10/100 Ethernet.
...so I believe that Kos can "easily" run (even better/faster than Linux) on it.

Does anyone tried this before ?

Thanks in advice for any hint/help you can provide.


Dunno if can help in any way, but here's the main related resource @ SF.net:

You'll need to flash the Xbox with a custom BIOS so you can run another OS.
I believe it's called cromwell.

Hi,

maybe you can try qemu within linux on the xbox. Video would be nice!

Wish you luck!
