The Softmod question..again
Posted: Tue Jan 11, 2005 1:01 pm
How come several topics on the forum suggest that installing gentoox on a softmodded xbox is possible but the MCEv1.1 manual states that a modchip is neccessary?
Is discussion of this not allowed becasue there is some illegal step involved in getting it to work with a softmod? Surely something like UXE running Cromwell is not illegal? I can see from the instructions that the installation tries to flash Cromwell to a modchip, is there a way to ignore this step?
I think softmod support would encourage a lot more people to try Gentoox as softmodding has become a lot more easy these days. I dont know much about linux but as I only have a PC at work, my only option is to use my xbox to try it! I will be trying the other xbox linux distributions but Gentoox MCE sounds perfect for my needs.
