Dear Source Mages..
I'm writing this letter/mail from an modded Xbox machine using Xebian
(a version of Debian to Xbox) using the controller as mouse and the
common USB keyboard. But as you already know, I would rather run
Source Mage GNU/Linux on this Xbox. This project is started and has
got the name: Magebox Experiment.
I would like you to be updated and get as much knowledge of this as
much as I have now, so that some of you hopefully can help me a bit.
The goal: Porting Source Mage to Xbox.
Requirements: The requirements are as follows:
A special .iso image of Source Mage GNU/Linux:
1. A patched kernel with one of the kernel patches made by the
Xbox-Linux team (direct URL to kernel patches:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=54192&package_id=1474)
2. There must be a linuxboot.cfg file in the root directory of the
.iso image.. Example on a simple linuxboot.cfg:
title AMeaningfulTitle (max 30 chars)
kernel /path/to/kernelimage
initrd /path/to/initrd
append kbd-reset root=/dev/rootdevice
title AnotherMeaningfulTitle (max 30 chars)
kernel /path/to/differentkernelimage
initrd /path/to/differentinitrd
append kbd-reset root=/dev/differentrootdevice
default AMeaningfulTitle
3. A linuxboot.cfg file in the bootable partition..
I'm a bit busy in this week, but I will do the best, I can to get
further with this projects, and I will be at the IRC server mostly, if
you have some questions :)
Comments are welcome! Whether they are bad or good.. :)
Sincerely Amel Durakovic (amel & wourgs)
