Maybe thats because it deletes everything on your hard drive.

And just by a quick read it seems you will lose you microsoft dashboard so make sure you FTP that onto your pc, so incase you need to restore it.

im pretty sure the xbox hard drive has to be a segate because microsoft has made different versions of the xbox with different hard drives

or you could just buy another hdd maybe????? 2GB really isn't all it's cut out to be to tell you the truth, most of your xbox games now-a-days are at leat 3.5-4.0GB. So buying an upgraded hdd would probably be the best bet.
