    inside the folder make a folder named app, and put the folder there.

    Do u want the XBMC to be an app or the main dashboard. I recommend to put XBMC as dashboard. Much easier.

    Here is a guide to do so

    You should try AID (Auto Installer Deluxe) it has XBMC, and a load of other apps. It can install emulators, and do various things such as format a hard drive, or install XBMC as your dash. You can find it here:

    You can forward the ports. The chances of you actually getting hacked are slime and none. But you'd have to ask you dad about letting you do it this one time.

    You would create a folder named "Applications" in your E: Drive, and you would FTP the XBMC folder into the the applications folder you made. When you click Apps. in your dashboard it will be there.
