Hi there, is anyone running Gentoox on a xbox with the new smartXX chip? After updating my chip to the smartXX, I cannot install Gentoox any more, because the box freezes at "Initializing network". I booted from Cromwell, EvoX, tried a static IP, with DHCP, without the network cable ....

Still no success..

did you try to stop eth from starting?

I disabled the eth at the bios but still the same error using cromwell. When I use the Linux boot tool from the chip the xbox freezes with "Compressed image found on block 0"

hmm.. sems you have some trouble with your installation.. try to copy the files in the distro.rar file (who is in the iso file) to root in drive E, check if the gentoox boot correctly with an "fresh" "installation"..
