    Is there a older version of Linux that takes less than 64 MB RAM, I was thinking around maybe 32 MB RAM, something like windows 98 compared to xp.

    Does all the software and external hardware that work on windows work on Linux? I think so cuz Linux and Windows both work on PC unlike the Operating System on Mac, that only works on Mac.

    Someone please help with this, because I'm not rich and I can't afford my own comp and I bassicaly want to turn my xbox to my pc..if u no wat i mean.

    can I put win 98 and xbox linux both on my xbox (my chip is duoX 2) as diff partitions? I heard that using 98 makes xbox run at 200 Mhz..

    To put those OS's on my xbox I just gota ftp it?
    The person that put in my chip wants to make me pay 40$ (canadian) to put xbox linux in there, I dont wana pay, i rather to do it myself, sum1 plz tell me how, step by step and make it a sticky for future reference.
