This is my guide to streaming Emulators, Music and Video to the PSP from either the XBOX, PS2 or PS3 (untested)
This may seem useless but I have an XBOX with 2 250GB HDD`s and a 10GB
So it is my home entertainment heart
You will need:
1 PSP (capable of running IRShell)
1 of either an XBOX, PS2 or PS3 running Linux
(I mainly use my XBOX with XDSL which can be found here http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=54192&package_id=151661 )
1 WIFI Router (to plug into the consoles)
Nethosts for Linux (included)

Now Im guessing you have Linux installed on your console (not sure if a livecd will work?)
If not here is a guide for setting up XDSL on the XBOX
http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=395867
(I have a loopback install that works good.. a native install will turn your XBOX into a Linux pc with no XBOX functionability)
Once that is completed you need to boot up Linux and mount your original XBOX partitions
1 - Open an X Terminal
2 - Become root by typing in su. You will then need to enter the root password for Linux (XDSL- User: root PWD: xbox or User: dsl PWD: dsl)
3 - Make a directory for where you want to mount the Xbox partition using mkdir /mnt/F
4 - Type mount -t fatx /dev/hda55 /mnt/F to mount the F partition on /mnt/F
You should now be able view your XBOX partitions from within Linux
The next step is to make it so your XBOX partitions are mounted automatically
open an X Terminal, type su to become root followed by nano /etc/fstab
then enter this
/dev/hda55 /mnt/F fatx umask=000,auto 0 0

That is the hard part out of the way
From here you need to be able to FTP to your console (or manage another way to transfer the nethosts file)

Go to the root of your partition that has your Emulators/Music or Movies (eg: F:/)
And simply transfer your nethosts file to that destination
Now you need to transfer your eboot.pbp (and any other files) from your PSP emulator into the corresponding XBOX emulator folder if you want to use the roms from your XBOX Emulator
eg: copy files out of SNES9x TYL to the SNES Emulator folder on your XBOX
that way your XBOX SNES emulator can still run the roms on that and your PSP can use the same roms
Finally go back to Linux and navigate to your nethosts file and click on it
Now you can stream to IRShell (If you have IRShell you already have a guide to setting up nethosts on the PSP side so read the readme) exactly as you would from a PC running Windows/Linux :D

Please note that this is untested on a PS3 but I figure if it can run Linux it can do the rest :D
Also a MASSIVE thankyou must go to Ahman for creating IRShell
Please forgive me but Im not sure if Dark Alex created nethosts or Ahman
Either way they both deserve ALOT of praise for all their efforts in the scene
(sorry for my grammar Im lazy)
