Hi all. I have been having a bit of fun trying to get gentoo on my 2nd hand V1.0 Xbox.
Performed the hw mod to allow me to flash the bios and now have Cromwell 2.40 
Booted from the gentoo Xbox live cd and floowed the x86 install guide aling with a build guide from the wiki. All going wonderfully, most happy.
Buit my kernel, alled what I thought were the correct lined to linuxboot.cfg and get:
| Code: | Loading /initrd-2.6.11.7 - 1663792 bytes
Bootconfig : kernel /kernel-2.6.11.7
Bootconfig : initrd /initrd-2.6.11.7
Bootconfig : Kernel commandline :
root=/dev/ram0 real_root=/dev/hda3 init=/linuxrc ramdisk_size=819
2 splash=silent kbd-reset video=xbox:640x480,nohwcursor devfs=mount acpi=hw
kernel 2.6.11.7 (root@livecd) #1 Sun Jun 12 16:20:21 BST 2005
Starting Linux

and there it hangs and I have no idea what is going on. I have tried building my kernel by hand and useing genkernel but to no sucess, any help appreciated, here is a copy of my linuxboot.cfg file
| Code: |
title Gentoo 2.6.11.7 for Xbox
kernel kernel-2.6.11.7
initrd initrd-2.6.11.7
append root=/dev/ram0 real_root=/dev/hda3 init=/linuxrc ramdisk_size=8192 splash=silent kbd-reset video=xbox:640x480,nohwcursor devfs=mount acpi=hw

| Have you tried booting w/o bootsplash? I think I would try that first to see if you get any output that is more useful than what you've seen so far. |
