Just wondering...
I see a few programs that allow a user to up the clock/bus speed. I am profiecient at overclocking, watercooling, and sitting here for 3 hrs compiling xmule. Some ppl are watercooling their xboxes I know that having only 64MB of ram hurts but without sending off for another 64 would it speed up compiling times (and be worth it?) or am i missing some larger hardware picture??? i.e. is it possible?

I don't think it would make a lot of difference, if you watch your CPU during compiling it spends a great deal of time below 100% waiting for free memory to use, the best thing you can do (if you've not already done it) is to move your installation to a native partition
If you keep an open mind, will your brain fall out?

ok i want to move my gentoox installation to a native installatoin but the thing is, i only have a C E F X Y and Z drives i have no G, because im only using 40 gig hard drive, i was wondering if there is anyway to resize the F drive and then put the leftover space to a G drive, and is a native installation really THAT much faster?

actually there has been alot of discussion about this on the xbox-scene.com forums, this forum in particular http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php? ... 108657&st=
shows that there might be a possiblility in making a partition tool like partition magic for pc onto the xbox if a developer takes a look at it... oz_paulb is the one who broke the 137gig barrier and he believes that there is a way to put a harddrive partition table onthe hard drive so when it reads it on boot it will read your specified settings....hopefully a developer takes a look at that code
