I just have bought a 360 ( :D ) It's the one with the Samsung MS28 8) But I wanna mod it, but how do you BOOT from a USB-stick, do you set it in the BIOS of your PC or you just plug it in and it will boot from it?

I want to know this so I won't get stuck in the middle of the flash process.

You wont get stuck in the middle, because if it does not boot the flash process will not be able to start

Just give it a try. If it does not work, check your BIOS to ensure that boot from usb device is enabled and set to come before the c:. You MAY have to update your bios to support this (usually only for older pc's)

Yeah I know but I just want to be prepared if any problems come up...

So if you prepare it in Xtreme Bootmaker, you don't have to do anything more than that? Just plug it in?

Correct - but as I mentioned already, your BIOS has to be able to support bootable USB sticks. Most newer ones do already
