HEllo all, I have a Xecuter 2.3 pro which I have flashed in this manner:
Bios #1: Xecuter2 bios (for booting directly to Evox)
Bios #2: Loader.bin (for loading up gentoox)
Bios #3: COPY OF BIOS 1
Bios #4 COPY OF BIOS 2
and with the mod chip turned off it boots microsoft code normally so I can still play Live.
What I want to do is be able to switch the mod chip to bank 1 to load evox and stuff, then reboot using bank 2 to load stright to gentoox.
So far my mod chip is flashed perfectly. I can boot to microsoft, evox, or the gentoox loader with the switches. BUT I havent installed gentoox yet.
I am confused on 2 things.
#1. Which version should I install the home, pro, or media center edition? whats the difference? and advanages?
#2. Which drive do I install it to? I have my E: drive that has my apps for evox and stuff, and then theres f: which has nothing on it. Where is the best place to install gentoox so that it will boot right from the flash? and what are the differences between installing on E: and F:?
I am a total newb who is learing Linux. I have Ubuntu on my laptop that I dual boot to learn from. Any help is appreciated. I havent installed the actual software yet, but the mod chip has been succesfully flashed.
Need help deciding which drive to install Gentoox. Using Mod

Thanks for the reply. I have decided to go with home. I think the only diff is home has a bunch of stuff precompiled.
I have decided to install an old 40 gig drive I have laying around due to the fact I dont have enough space to install gentoox. I think I will prolly go with a f: drive install and keep all my other xbes on e:
