hi,
i installed gentooxx v4 via ftp and at first it worked.
i was listenting to music when suddenly an electrical power outage happened... (sry 4 my englisch i'm from germany^^)
Then i turned ob my xbox again but i couldn't start gentoox any more...
I reinstalled it via ftp but that was useless...
I've got a Smart XX v2 Chip with a 200gb Seagate HDD
Thx 4 help

Can't start Gentooxx
I'm no expert, but...
Power surges can do nasty things to hardware. Almost anything could be wrong.
a) H/w OK?
Does your Xbox still work correctly it was originally intented ie. as a games machine? If so, your original hardware is probably Ok.
Did you install a new dashboard/bios with your Smart XX chip? If so, is that still working OK? If not, trying installing one to see if that works.
Given that you said you reinstalled by ftp, I'm assuming the above is good.
b) I'm not familiar with your Smart XX v2 Chip, but perhaps you need to reflash your bios? Maybe it got fried?
I'm assuming here you had it setup to direct boot into Gentoox, perhaps with Cromwell?
If all of that's Ok, then you should probably recheck your Gentoox install. Is everything in the correct place?
Answering these questions may also be beneficial:
-Do you see Gentoox loader startup?
-Can you run Sparkle?
[BTW, I don't use Cromwell so YMMV!]
Unfortunately, not much help I know....
