Hello everyone, I want to thank all of you who have helped me with getting this thing going so far, everything has worked flawlessly to date, thank you for that.

I am interested in installing Linux now to play around with that. I have downloaded the Debian version of it (0.4.1). I am assuming this is what I want? I would like to have it boot from the HD (without a boot CD) and have a menu item for it through my dashboard which I can take care of no problem. Which install do I want to use? In the download, the README file vs. the cover's instructions are different. I have the 10.4 gig hard drive, so I have the extra space and would like to install it to that if possible so that I can have a dedicated space for Linux... also, is there any way of re-formatting that space back to normal if I ever wanted to?

Also, quick Q for you all... is there a link by chance to a HD compatability list for the XBOX? I found a link in a forum, but it didn't work. Without modifications to the cooling of the XBOX, what HD's can I run and how do I get them properly working (with the default structure and OS) on the XBOX?

Thanx guys!
