As far as I know, the xbox wouldn't even think about it. It simply does not have the processing power.
Xboxes have a hard enough time emulating N64 haha _________________

The processor can handle it, just the lack of memory and system structure for XP. _________________

nice1, i got the full linux iso and burnt it onto a cd. i load it up on the xbox and it loads linux! w00t. but i cant see where to install it to the hd which is essential as i cant download any linux apps onto it. the xbox-linux.org site mentiones that you goto xterm then type in XBOX
EDIT---Itsok i got it working
