Title: xboxhd help plz
Post by: r3skyline on March 31, 2008, 07:58:16 PM
ok, im not new to softmodding....however, the last time i did it was  a long time ago, lol...newho, here are the specs of the pc i am using for this job

lite on sata dvd drive
evga 780i
500GB hdd ide

....

ok, problem is that i get the linx cd not found, please insert and try again, error.....is this because the hard drive is running on an ide channel and my cd in the sata channeL? if so, is there any other way to format the hdd and to lock it with the key and whatnot? i do not have access to another motherboard/dvd drive. any help would be appreciated.

so yea, apparently it isnt possible to do both on seperate channels and or the dvd drive needs to be on a pata channel and not a sata channel because of the linux configuration that xboxhdm uses. =/

xbox hdd on primary IDE, set as master
cd\dvd drive on secondary IDE, set as anything

thats your safest bet
