first of all x3cl does not support large harddisks you must format it with xbpartitioner or you will end up with data corruption in the future.

ftp within x3cl is a bit iffy I would recommend you pop in a slayers/ hexen cd or dvd to ftp data to your xbox but i believe x3cl requires you to add a dns entry with the IP address of the computer serving the data for ftp, for some reason it does not like if you leave it blank.

i believe the password is x3 and the user is x3 just to be sure you are not using xbox and xbox like everything else.

I also noticed x3's ftp displays remaining space on each partition. For me, to enter a partition using Filezilla, I have to delete the trailing junk in the path and make it read /C ... Then hit enter and the contents read fine.

Good. Use saved partition table is the part that threw me for a loop the first time around too.

You have to use the saved partition table on the disc after formatting with xbpartitioner. It works now, right?

A capacitor on the motherboard, see here for how to remove it. If you replace it the xbox will keep the time again, however its easier to have it hooked up to a network so it grabs the time from the internet on boot :)
