If your flashing the Hitachi v78 drive then make sure the Computer will recognize ur Sata card.Better yet,if u have a new pc why dont u install the Sata card on the newer computer.takes out the worries.Before u do naything though u should make sure the computer is good enough to handle the programs being run and make sure it has a CdRom (not a floppy dirve)
so u can use Slax 2

yea, if the computer doesn't recognize the SATA card, I'll just go ahead and try it on my parents PC now that I'm down for spring break. If that doesn't work I'll try the SATA card on one of my roommates PC back at college.

if your trying to flash bios to the 360 of your old computer to run windows it will not work due to the xbox 360 running a power pc prossesor not an intel or amd chip like windows and linux usualy require there are a few distros of linux that would run but mac will not due to it not using bios it uses EFI if you are trying to run the 360 on your old laptop basicly same issue also its way to slow even if it would work
