Xbox:SmartXX

This process is dangerous and potentially can brick or fry your Xbox. It involves soldering a very small contact, so it is recommended to be experienced with soldering before proceeding.

This page details information related to the SmartXX series of Xbox Xbox:Modchips.

ED@Chip

ED on a chip is a small Linux BIOS with a built-in FTP and Telnet server made for SmartXX. This can be booted into by flashing the ED@Chip BIOS onto a SmartXX flash bank. By default, its Xbox:FTP login is "xbox" for both the username and password. It is named after Ed, the author of Xebian.
