Hi John,

The small hardware modification (aka the modchip) is not needed.  Is
possible to install Linux on Xbox only using an "installation feature"
(a buffer overflow) in the game MechAssault.

Also is possible to run Linux on PS/2, so a Squeak port to it seems
relative easy.

I'd like to know more from this project.
