Re:so, i softmodded my xbox. - 2008/04/21 04:44
well, I personally have used krazie's installer... and I don't much care for it. His was kinda a rip off of "ltools"(although upgrading back to a kernel patcher instead of bios loader). By default, NDURE also usually installs unleashX as the default os. Unleashx is alright, but honestly, it is too "heavy" for standard use. It does have it's own "editor" in it, so you don't have to ftp in to add to the evox menu, but it seems too over the top for standard use. Personally, I would much rather start it up with EvoX, and then, if needed, boot into XBMC. Something I had wanted to try was to boot using XBMC as my dash, however, back when I was doing it (way before T3CH release 666), it wasn't fully functional to do so. Hopefully, I will be talking to a friend of mine... and we will be starting a collection.... the xbox "goodset"... unfortunately, it will be EXTREMELY large ( ~1+ T but it will be worth it. If you are interested in emulation, the xbox is wonderful. There are several n64 emu's that have been ported to the xbox, which makes it a perfect replacement for the 64. The only downside, is that a few games(Perfect Dark), that require more than the 64megs of ram that the xbox comes with. The interesting thing is, that the ram can be upgraded. The xbox has 2 open slots for ram chips. This will allow you to throw in 64 mb for a total of 128. If you enjoy linux, there are several xbox distros including gentoo, that work perfectly. After it is modded, it is very easy to hook up other devices to it (usb ANYTHING, wifi, bluetooth, flashdrives, keyboards, mice, etc) but only under linux. There was also a project to allow the xbox to output native VGA signals to a monitor. So technically, the limits... are anything you could possibly come up with under linux!
