If you don't wish burn XDSL onto a cd and have the ability to ftp to you Xbox, it is possible to simply copy across the required files. Create a directory E:\KNOPPIX on your Xbox. Extract linux24, minirt24.gz and the KNOPPIX file (found in the KNOPPIX subdirectory) from the iso and copy them into this directory. You should be left with the following files:
E:\KNOPPIX\KNOPPIXE:\KNOPPIX\linux24E:\KNOPPIX\min irt24.gz
There should be no subdirectories in E:\KNOPPIX. The filenames are case sensitive.
Now create a file E:\linuxboot.cfg with the following content:
title XDSLkernel KNOPPIX/linux24initrd KNOPPIX/minirt24.gzappend root=/dev/ram0 init=/etc/init rw video=xbox:640x480 frugal quiet kbd-resetFinally if you are not using the Cromwell BIOS copy default.xbe somewhere where you can run it from your Xbox. Then run Cromwell/default.xbe to boot XDSL. If you then want to peform a loopback/native install simply select your desired option in the Apps, Tools menu

Basically here is the file structure:
E:\KNOPPIX\ (No sub directories and should contain everything but the default.xbe and linuxboot.cfg)
E:\APPS\XDSL\Default.xbe (this shlould be the ONLY file in this folder )
E:\linuxboot.cfg (this is where the linuxboot goes u prolly wont need to edit it?)
well i did all this and edited the linux boot thing and when i run the linux it says fatxerror minirt blah blah blah something like that is becouse i edited linuxboot wrong,file order? or something else i cant figure out?

hahahahaha i figured it out i unziped the files when i didnt need to so it wasnt reading it huh well how do you resize it so half the desktop isnt over the of the screen?
