how do we compy the files. and how do we pick where we want to put the files

This is sketchy as it requires to do some extra work.  You can either:

1. Use the 007 or Mech Assault method to copy the files over
2. Open up your Xbox to grab the HD and use the Linux method to copy them over

Whatever you choose, choose wisely.

The usual disclaimer applies. I take no responsibility whatsoever.. blah blah blah...

Files needed:
1) free-x exploit files
2)xbox-micro from xbox-linux project


Steps:
1) Gatehering the files you need
1a) extract free-x files, you should have default.xbe, bert.xtf, and ernie.xtf
1b) extract xbox-micro, find the "micro" directory and you would find 3 files (initrd, linuxboot.cfg, vmlinuz)

2)Preparing Xbox
2a) On Xbox C drive, locate the file (Xbox.xtf and Xbox Boox.xtf), rename both to Xbox.xtfbak and Xbox Boox.xtfbak)
2b) Copy the 6 files (3 from free-x and 3 xbox-micro) to the same directory where the two font files reside

3)Reboot and enjoy
3a) you can ssh to your xbox on 192.168.0.3 username:root password:xbox

where do you get the first files ? (default.xbe, bert.xtf, and ernie.xtf)
