Hello there,

As I also mentioned to you privately, I think it might actually be wiser to
just drop Xbox support entirely. The Xbox support was a funny thing back
then, but I suspect it has actually outlived its usefulness.

The original Xbox only has a 733 MHz Celeron CPU, 64 MB of RAM and a 10 GB
harddisk. I don't think there are that many people left who want to run
FreeBSD 11 on it.

Thoughts?
