Hello. I am new. Please help me.

Post by wellifimustiwill »

I just purchased an xbox. It is modded with a modchip I have never heard of before (Win- or something? sorry. It seems like it was one of the first modchips). It is a 1.1 with the Thompson DVD drive, and the stock 8GB hdd (C, E and F partition)as wondering if it is possible for me to install Gentoox onto the E partition, while keeping the F partition intact for XBMC and emulators. XBMC is curently my dashboard since I haven't had much time recently to play around with new ones, and it does run the unsigned .xbe's since I had MAME-X installed as well. Any help would be appreciated.

1. Can I install Gentoox on the E partition while keeping the F partition the way it is?
2. Can I run Gentoox using a shortcut I've saved onto the F partition if it is installed on the E partition?
3. Do I need a live CD?
4. Do I need a more well known modchip?

you dont need any modchip, softmods work just fine
