I thought there was a glitch with it as well because my SD card kept corrupting after installing xboxdrv on the next reboot. Turns out my rpi2 didnt like the PNY sd card I was using. Switched it out for a MicroCenter branded one and it works like a charm.

Short instructions on how I got it to work. Just finished testing Mario Kart 64 and Super Mario 3.

Install RetroPieImage and boot.
exit emulation station
Expand Rootsystem
Overclock
Reboot

exit emulation station
blacklist xpad
install xbox drv
setup 3-Ini (https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Setting-up-the-XBox360-controller)
Reboot

exit emulation station
cd RetroPie-Setup
Option 3 Setup
Option 317 Configure Retroarch Controller
Follow on screen prompts to setup controller

Reboot and enjoy
