i don't think a tutorial is needed as it's very simple =)

if you have emu's in the Xbox right now then you know where they go  ::) But i'll tell you anyways lol

If your xbox was softmod with Krayzie's then you should have a emulators folder in E/ F/ and G/ if you have your partitions set  with .67

If you don't have the folder you can make it.

If you used SID then (Shame on you) lol.. But anyways if you used SID the folder will be called Emus


the Roms (all in what the emulator can play) Should be unpacked (aka) not in .rar or .zip

in the snes/nes/sega/etc etc folder should be a folder called Roms  there is where you place all your Roms.

examples

/F/emulators/Snes/
/F/emulators/Nes/roms/ <----where games go for Nes emulator =)
/G/emulators/Sega  <---- if you want them in G drive.

Also to add to Zzk's post... I've often had problems with emulators being too long in length... aka... file name. You may want to rename them to something shorter... maybe it's just me, but I always had a problem with that crap.

Happy modding...oh and don't do drugs!
