Weird results. After booting it up, It did not partition my G drive at all. What it did though was take all of the content that was Originally on G (basically all xbox backups) and put it on the F partition. @Rocky5: Comparing https://github.com/Rocky5/Chimp261812/blob/master/Source%20Files/Edited%...

Thanks GoTeamScotch. The bulk of the work was done some years back when I patched smartmontools with ATA Security features. The rest of the stuff came from hdm2.2 and then Rocky5 did a great job with the menus.

This is the beta release of xboxhdm23usb. It is a remake of xboxhdm running in Windows with USB SATA/IDE enclosures/adapters.

The USB docking station or adapter may be able to lock the disk directly without needing a modded xbox. Use this http://www.xbmc4xbox.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4125

Xebian can boot from PC/VirtualBox

Use virtualbox/qemu/vmware to run any old linux distro to compile stuff. (EASY)

OR

Use chroot , debootstrap and snapshot.debian.org to travel back in time to any past version of Debian (DIFFICULT).

The code for 2.6 FATX was never finished so 2.4 is a better bet.

Are you referring to the 2.6 kernel from chimp?
Just your download says"linux-2.6.18.withfatx.tar.bz2", confusion.

Reading might work but writing FATX is broken, chimp2618 doesn't use this kernel feature so it wasn't tested much

That's FATX for xbox 360. or XTAF.

The differences are more than endianness in the code. So that's a dead end.

And who's going to do the hard work of writing the code?

Anyway even mainline Kodi doesn't have it yet, Kodi with AudioDSP is a fork currently:

rocky5: was that the app version of 2618? Did you try the LUD disc version of 2618?

261811: http://www.xbmc4xbox.org.uk/forum/viewt ... 885#p25885

Chimp doesn't support larger hdd, anything over 250GB will start acting up later due to chimp not supporting larger cluster sizes. (only supports 16k) So it's only really useful if you have a stock or smaller hdd. Note, it's only the F & G partitions that would be effected, since they can go to...

I'd be interested to know the underlying reason or symptoms for this so as to fix them in chimp261811.

Seriously out of topic.

Ldotsfan?

I'd scan for bad sectors on the drive first to eliminate one possibility - from a PC.

Which version of xbpartitioner is this?
