Introduction

-

FreeBSD/xbox is a port of FreeBSD which aims to run on Microsoft® - Xbox® systems. This project was started by &a.rink;, who did most of the patching - and coding. Ed Schouten helped with - reviewing patches and he also provided details on certain Xbox - internals.

- -

Status

- -

FreeBSD/xbox is supported in FreeBSD 6-STABLE and FreeBSD 7-CURRENT. - The framebuffer, Ethernet, sound and USB devices - (such as an USB keyboard for the console) are all supported.

- -

In order to aid people in installing the FreeBSD/xbox port, a combined - install/livecd has been created. - It is available here.

- -

Booting FreeBSD-CURRENT kernels

- -

In order to boot FreeBSD 7-CURRENT from CVS, you must have an up-to-date - version of the Linux/xbox BIOS, called Cromwell (failure will result in your - kernel crashing immediately after loading). A Cromwell with FreeBSD UFS - patches (this will make it able to load a kernel directly from an UFS file - system) is available in the ports tree at /usr/ports/sysutils/cromwell; it - can be flashed to the EEPROM using the /usr/ports/sysutils/raincoat port (as - long as your Xbox is below version 1.6).

- -

Note: Several Xbox drives are known to reject certain types of media. - Should you experience random hangs, panics or corruption during installation, - try a different known-working DVD/CD-ROM.

- -

Installing on the hard drive

- -

You can do an installation using the Live CD's, but you will need to do - everything manually. It is suggested to prepare your disk using an FreeBSD/i386 - installation and set up the /boot/xboxlinux.cfg configuration - file yourself, so Cromwell can determine which kernel to load.
