I'd really like to use my XBox as a diskless mythtv frontend. Since I'm not planning on using the XBox for anything other than Myth and XBox games I don't really want to swap out the standard 8 or 10 gig drive. I'd prefer to put etherboot onto some free space on the existing disk, or even better in the SmartXX EEPROM, then boot Gentoo off the LAN.
Does anyone have any idea how doable that would be?
