Title: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: Boost on October 13, 2005, 08:54:33 PM
[/list] Step 1: Making the Xboxhdm 1.9 Boot CD Open xboxhdm, go into the "Linux" folder Copy all the C files into the "C" folder in xboxhdm Copy all the E files into the "E" folder in xboxhdm Leave the eeprom folder empty ( this is so you can use this cd more than just once ) Put the "eeprom.bin" on a floppy disk for that harddrive. Go back to the main directory in xboxhdm and run "make-iso-win" ( this will create a bootable Xboxhdm iso for Linux ) Let this process finish, the more you have on the cd, the longer it will take. ( try to do the bare minimum on gamesaves ) Once this is finished, Open Nero and burn this file to a CD as an Image. ( you can use a cdr, cdrw, dvd, dvdrw ) Step 2: Setting Up The Hardware Remove the harddrive from the xbox and check the jumper, usually it will be on CS ( cable select ) If it is on CS, leave it there. If not set it to CS and plug the computers power cable & Master Ide cable. Unplug all computer harddrives, leave only the xbox harddrive pluged in. Set the computers Bios to AUTO on the master that the xbox harddrive is on. Also set the comptuer to boot from CD first. **( some computers are picky, try different settings on the bios to find what works for your computer, my computer has to be set to "NONE", and Linux finds the harddrive once xboxhdm boots up. )** Step 3: Booting Linux and unlocking/locking the harddrive Put the xboxhdm CD in the CD drive, reboot the computer. Now Xboxhdm will load, you will have 4 choices Press "3" to goto the locking/unlocking tools. Type "unlockhd -a" this is to unlock the harddrive, the -a is for autosearch Pop in the floppy disk with the eeprom.bin on it and choose "1" for floppy disk The harddrive is now unlocked! Type "reboot" to reboot Step 4: Rebuilding The Harddrive When xboxhdm boots up this time choose option "1" Type "xboxhd" for a menu of tools to help you build your harddrive and more. Find what you're looking for in the menu and type the number Build a new harddrive from scratch is the most common This will copy the "C" & "E" folders off your xboxhdm CD! Type "8" to quit once it's finished Type "reboot" to reboot Step 5: Locking The Harddrive Just like step 3 load the locking/unlocking tools Now type Lockhd -a "this locks the harddrive" Put the floppy disk in and choose "1" again for floppy disk It will now lock the harddrive with the same eeprom as before. Type "poweroff" to ..... yup power off Plug your xbox harddrive back up to your xbox and put your computer back to normal.

welcome to smdepot Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: xious on January 09, 2006, 03:36:19 PM I cannot find eeprom.bin do I have to do something else?

Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: Boost on January 10, 2006, 02:42:47 PM you need the eeprom.bin or the entire hdd key.
one way to get the key is if you still have the exploit still saved on your xbox pop in the game and load "run linux" while your xbox is on the network, FTP to it by the IP address on the screen. there should be an option to "back up" once the backup is complete look for the eeprom.bin save it to your PC and put it on a floppy disk. now your all set to follow the tut above. if you can't get the game to read the save and did not format the harddrive, you can put use "Slayers Auto installer" in a chipped xbox to unlock and then FTP to the xbox to get the eeprom bin ((( NEVER DO THE BACKUP OPTION IN THE CHIPPED XBOX - IT WILL MAKE A NEW EEPROM FOR THE CHIPPED XBOX ))) lock the hdd back with slayers and then use the tut above ( don't try to short cut the lock and unlock by not locking it back, it will have a lock frozen error when you try to use it in the PC. ) trust me.... if not have the advil handy. once you have the eeprom.bin and the hdd locked back, use the tut above to rebuild your hdd. Hope this Helps BOOST Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: mod skwod on January 16, 2006, 07:53:55 PM excellent tut!! i just used a spare computer just for making drives.two questions: is the eeprom xbox specific? and is it possible to put the xboxhdm program on a drive instead of a cd?
Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: Boost on January 16, 2006, 08:50:39 PM every xbox has a different eeprom based on the xbox motherboard, harddrive and dvdrom.
yes you can put it on a harddrive and use it like that. good idea for many xboxes. I have 3 different CD's for xboxhdm. 1 - for making a stock xbox again with the Ltools exploits for all the games. 2 - for making a stock xbox again with the Ndure exploits for all the games. 3 - for making a a modded custom xbox loaded with Apps, Trainers, Skins and Emulators all on F for large harddrives. but thats me and I get bored and do stuff like that. have fun with it, if you need anything msg me here or hop in the chat room. http://www.smdepot.net/irc/chat.php later BOOST Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: xxjaxusxx on December 25, 2006, 12:31:41 PM or you could just make it on a CD-RW... lol
Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: Snafupossum on December 26, 2006, 03:47:22 PM CD-RW doesnt always work, even if you dont allow anymore writing to be dont to the disc, well atleas it doesnt work for my drive
Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: Boost on December 26, 2006, 05:10:04 PM CD-Rs are cheap anyways, having a few backups never hurt
Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: djgook on April 28, 2007, 06:12:57 PM ok im lost on step 1. The tutorial says to copy files from "c" to "c" and from "e" to "e" folders. Can someone tell me where the files are that needs to be copied over?
Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: Snafupossum on April 28, 2007, 06:44:07 PM if you open a ftp to your xbox, you will see all the partitions of the hdd on the xbox, C: and E: are drives on the xbox. You need to copy everthing inside those drives into the C and E folders in xboxhdm
Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: djgook on April 28, 2007, 07:06:19 PM Ok sorry im so noob...but if the xbox is a virgin xbox and is neither chipped or softmod how do you ftp to it? can you? sorry maybe im just not understanding this...
Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: Snafupossum on April 29, 2007, 12:17:11 AM no, the xbox needs to be softmodded, either hardmodded (chipped), or softmodded to be able to ftp and get the information off the xbox.
Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: drfweega on May 01, 2007, 06:45:26 AM .. be softmodded, either hardmodded (chipped), or softmodded .. huh?Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives!

Title: Re: XBOXHDM - making 1 CD for many harddrives! Post by: SMD on May 11, 2007, 11:51:01 AM Yachi, every time you retort "Feck off I'm Irish"... you are stating that all of your faults are common among all Irish. Which isn't fair to them. I'm sure there are plenty of good spellers in Ireland :)
