Brad -- You micht try a CD-RW. Also try booting it multiple times. I have had success with Verbatim media. The Thompson drive that comes in some Xboxes is very picky about what it will read. If you have the Samsung you are in better shape from what I hear. Also, you could use a DVDRW and not waste a disc. Just a thought.
Also, if you have FTP access, you could just FTP the xebian stuff over there (Im not 100% on this but I think you can do that, I know gentoox works this way). Also, just FYI, 720p is supported with gentoox if you have a TV that handles it. I chose gentoox just because I know gentoo better than debian. I think its an unsupported port at this time tho. I had aspirations of surfing the web from my TV... Got a wireless keyboard/mouse. Basically the conclusion I came to is - It hurts my eyes, even at 720p - There isn't enough ram to do much but annoy me The only thing that really worked well was to have a script on boot that called rdesktop to my windows box (gasp!). This was quite snappy. Unfortunately my Xbox has been occupied with Fable lately and I haven't played with it more =/ Anyway, count one more guy in for xbox hacking... I love those frickin things.

Not running Xebian yet. Not from the lack of desire, but that I have so many other things to check out at the moment that I just haven't gotten to Xebian. I did burn and cd, then I was told it needs to be a cdrw, so I tried that. Neither one of them worked. so now I need to try a DVD. But I really hate to waste a whole DVD on one 126MB iso file. I'll do it one day. just not this day! Yeah, since day one i've been wanting some kind of remote power switch for the xbox. I thought about the controller mod power switch, but the xir remote is a lot cooler, so i'm gonna try that first! I'm gonna to try my programming again tonight. I'll let you know!
