Folks at The Xbox Linux Project have gotten Linux to run on an un-modified Microsoft Xbox. In fact, you don’t even have to open the Xbox up to boot and install the Xbox Linux Live Plugin Distribution. All it involves is to install a small savegame.
The Xbox is a legacy-free PC by Microsoft that consists of an Intel Celeron 733 MHz CPU, an nVidia GeForce 3MX, 64 MB of RAM, a 8/10 GB hard disk, a DVD drive and 10/100 Ethernet. As on every PC, you can run Linux on it.
An Xbox with Linux can be a full desktop computer with mouse and keyboard, a web/email box connected to TV, a server or router or a node in a cluster. You can either dual-boot or use Linux only; in the latter case, you can replace both IDE devices. And yes, you can connect the Xbox to a VGA monitor.
Can't do it yourself? We can install Linux on your Xbox - for free!Use this guide for fast installation
