I've only done this once but this is how I did it:

1) Switched on XBox (loading EvolutionX)
2) Put DVD in XBox
3) Connected to XBox from my PC using SmartFTP
4) Copied the files from the XBox DVD drive (D) to my PC.
5) Copied the files back over to XBox into E:\Games\Halo
6) Created an entry in the Evox.ini linking to E:\Games\Halo\default.xbe
7) Rebooted XBox and loaded Halo from the option on the EvolutionX menu

Hope that helps

im running the golberg method of evo dashboard this is how i do it....


Boot up the machine
Putin a games or apps disc
Goto Games & Apps
Select Apps, then Xboxplorer
From XBoxplorer choose 'A' as being the e: drive. Go into the Games or Apps folder depending on what you want to dump.
If you were to choose Games, go into the folder and press the white button. Select 'New Directory' Name it what ever the game is, you dont have to be accurate it's for your info only here.
Now press the right trigger to goto 'B' select the d: drive and highlight all files using the 'X' button. Now press white and copy.
Press both triggers and start to confirm.
Once done reboot the machine, take the disc out.
Goto the Games & Apps folder.
Select Games
Now the game you have just copied will be there. Select and press 'A' to boot!!!

If you ever wanted to delete, just load up Xboxplorer and delete the folder the game is in.

well, when e: is full it's time to upgrade the hdd for more space or just get rid of some sh*t

When you go into boxplorer press the left trigger and make sure it says A on thr top right and not B, then do the copy it will copy to E drive, I don,t think there is any way to copy into a subfolder or the F drive. Someone please correct if I am wrong.
A much better way to copy is to use XBcopy it gives the option to copy to E or F drive game folders. its a very small appliance. do a search on google as I can't post link here. Or email me
