as Arakon said be "no". Meaning no, it's not currently possible. Only way it would be possible would be if BIOS developers/hackers like Xecuter or EvoX add a SAMBA client or similar to the BIOS. Reason it have to be added to the BIOS is that the Xbox can only run one process/XBE at a time, as soon as a other one is launched it cuts off all process (ei the one running will be cut of when start an other executable as the Xbox can only run one).

QUOTE (arazfar @ Nov 1 2003, 10:44 AM)
Another words running the xbe off of a drive in another PC requires 2 process then?? one to mount the drive via SAMBA client and one to actually running it???
Can Gentoox do this then???? or all available BIOSs allow only one process at a given time???? what does it take to create multi process bios???

I don't think you understand what's been written. It's not possible. Period. Re-read the responses. If you need to ask what it "takes" to make such a BIOS hack, then you're not gonna be the one to make it.

The closest thing you can get is saving ROMs/ISOs (for emulators that support them) from a Samba/Relax share... dats it apparantly.
