You’d need to patch a vanilla Linux kernel source tree with the XBox patches from CVS (on this site), configure for FATX support, and compile. This might be useful if you regularly exchange memory cards between computers. For hard drives though, you would have to unlock the XBox drive (via hot swap) before you could use it on the PC, which might not be desirable.
