What type of install do you have? I've only ever run Native installs and it never takes very long but from what I gather if you do it the 'other' way it can take quite a while. All I would suggest is that you make sure you install the latest version prior to running Magic.

Please don’t ask people to wet nurse you, yes the –C is the uninstall bit. Type emerge --help this will list all the switches you can use, emerge is like the Add or Remove Programs bit of windows emerge -search mod will search for all package with mod in the title, emerge –C mod_php will uninstall m...

It looks like you have a 1.6 -> Xbox then, search up the top for "overscan"

It was me, lol, I think that maybe two HDD's are a little much for the PSU and the server went down. I've rebooted and we will see if it was just a one off, fingers crossed!

UPDATE 17/01/06 Looks like the PSU can run two HDD's just fine, must have been summet else...

Just thought I’d show you how easy it is to make a two disk NAS now that you can install and repair via the Resctoox web, First remove the front bezel from the front of the DVD and screw it from underneath of the Xbox front bezel, http://www.cheesyboofs.co.uk/site/sd1.jpg Then mount the second hard ...

thought I would condense my two Xboxes in to one now that your new loader supports web booting. So I flashed my 1.3 with Gentoox Loader v6.01 and put both my HDD’s in, and it doesn’t see either disk? It boots from the web fine and I can see both disks under the HDD menu but I can not see either on t...

I think you’re right, I think something is crashing and going %100 CPU bound then as a by product loadmonitor is failing to shut the Xbox down when the CPU warms up.
I think I’m gunna have to trawl through the logs some more, it must be there…

I wonder if any of you can help? Every so often one of my Gentoox boxes locks up. The light on the front goes red, apache stops responding and so does Samba and I can’t SSH into it although the Xbox will still respond to a ping. It also send out these e-mails till I can get home to reboot it; cat: /...

This is so clever, how many other Linux servers can you boot & recover at a bios / loader level. This is the icing on the cake IMO to what has become a fantastic venture!

I'm all for this, If I can do away with the F'in CD-RW's that dont like booting in Thompson and Philips CD drives. Also shallax if you could somehow let the user point it at ones own HTTP server then one could keep a local dump for future builds

Nope! you lost me...

Making an initrd pivotroot to it (after being loaded from the hard drive)

Sorry but I don't understand the Hard Drive reference, surly a 1Gb memory stick is quite large enough to run Resctoox isn’t it?

Shallax, http://www.cheesyboofs.co.uk/pen.jpg How hard would this be to code? To get the boot loader to support a memory stick, it would be well handy to copy Restoox to it rather than dodgy CDR's that take about three attempts to boot. Also I could remove the CD Drive altogether if I could boot fro...

Cool, just to confirm do we still apend dontdeleteme?
