***IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT BOTH YOUR COMPUTER AND XBOX HAVE TO BE PLUGGED IN TO YOUR ROUTER VIA ETHERNET CABLE ****


1. Okay so first, burn Debian Live CD to a CD not a DVD. I shall repeat that a CD. Use image burn, whatever. Just burn it to a CD


2. When done burning, press the eject button on your jtag to boot Xell. Insert the disc when prompted (in Xell it says, waiting to read media file or something along those lines). When the disc is inserted, leave your xbox. The screen will go black after 1-2 minutes with penguins at the top. THIS IS A GOOD THING. THIS MEANS THE CD IS DOING ITS JOB .[/size]

[size=12]3. When Debian CD is done doing its thing, this screen should appear. Take note of the ip address that is given to you. You will need this later. LEAVE YOUR XBOX ON FOR NOW.

4. Okay, so back to the computer now. What you will need to do is open up JTAG Tool. In JTAG tool, set the Device type to USB, select your motherboard, where it says freeboot at the bottom insert your CPU key, and then hit create.bin

5. When youve hit create.bin, find your original nand and hit open. A black screen will apear TWICE, so both times hit the enter key. Then, save the new freeboot image as freeboot.bin

6. Remember the IP address from your xbox. Good, because now you need it. Open up putty, and type in the IP address where it says host-name. Click open and a black box appears. Login as root and the password is xbox360. When done, press enter, and the screen that is on your jtag should appear in the black screen. NOW LEAVE PUTTY OPEN.
