Re: TSOP Flasher Project (Based on Chimp)

The issue with the Xbox Linux 2.6 fatx driver is it's not very good :lol: it doesn't handle loads of folders and files on a fatx partition properly, so you won't see all folders files e.g.... So C and the cache partitions are preferred. Thanks for your reply, Yea it's all slowly coming back to me.....

TSOP Flasher Project (Based on Chimp)

Yet again I'm making another attempt at improving my TSOP Flashkit basing it on Rocky5's Chimp Loader and Chimp261812 What inspired me the most was how Rocky was able to automate Gentoox Loader to boot Linux without any input... CHIMP LOADER: Firstly I would have to figure out how to get Chimp Loade...

Re: Need help with Tsop recovery after bad flash..

i just bricked another 2 Consoles flashing corrupt M8+ Bios with Gentoox. Firstly I would have to ask what makes you certain that the bios.bin was corrupted? I know on Linux this could be checked by using the compare command like so, cmp badbios.bin goodbios.bin > badbios.bin goodbios.bin differ: b...

Re: Issue Loading Chimp261812

Damn it, I remember now this happens all the time... "File Permissions"
for some reason when I use my Linux only Laptop and FTP, I loose permissions
I've gotten around this in the past by using a Windows Platform
Even if I chmod these files they always loose file permissions after FTP

Re: Preparing for RAM Upgrade

I used an ordinary heat gun, and a protective layer of aluminum foil pressed onto the board, with a rectangle cut-out for the modules. A copper cable sleeve to hold them firmly to their pads. And some paste flux. I don't know if they use lead-free solder or not, but based on my tests with a donor 1...

Re: Ultra IDE Origami

That's a big cable :shock: LoL, I mentioned this on another thread but due to availability, I had a choice between a cable that was either to small or to large. Just letting you know the connectors on the IDE cables can be removed by taking the top clip off and pulling the lower part of the connect...

Preparing for RAM Upgrade

I've been wanting to do a RAM upgrade for sometime now. There's a few things to take in consideration when upgrading... BIOS: In my opinion it would be best to TSOP flash the console as the original BIOS will be useless once upgraded. Personally, I don't only need a BIOS that can support RAM upgrade...

Ultra IDE Origami

So last week my parcel with two 800mm ultra IDE cables finally arrived. The first thing you should notice when trying to install a new cable, is that the hard drives connector is inverted on the original cable. To replicate this I devised a way to fold the new cable shown below... http://i.imgsafe.o...

This should only happen the first time, after they have been scanned into the MyPrograms6.db they will scan within a few seconds as XBMC scans for new games.
