Are you sure that OS and Dashboard version on your Xbox are old enough to support installation using save-game hacks? New versions of the Xbox software are not as susceptible to these tricks. You might need a modchip, and newer versions of Xbox hardware aren't compatible with the open-source Cromwell BIOS. I tried to use the save-game hacks initially myself, and I ended up buying a modchip. My hardware was old enough to use Cromwell. Then I installed using Xebian and Mythtv-xbox. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
