Don't Run A Hdd Xbe Scan! :o, I've finally clued in... Options

[cmiz]

The clock's gradually approaching "zero hour" (give or take a time zone)

well hurry it up! we're getting impatient!!

However, Ndure's not the most significant point of the countdown (IMHO)!  Does anyone know the "softmod happening" we've really all been gathered to remember?

the wholesale sodomy of billy gates and his evil empire? no? i'll sit back down now...(are you referring to UD-eh and it's many contributions?)

Edit: [colour|color] correction...

eh...i'm colorblind. makes no difference to me!

[triggernum5]

You're welcome trigger. (Btw, I think Ndure has the potential to "beef CHUI up" even more!

Sweet.. When I get home to fix that puppy I think I'm gonna make the XSelect an optional component as well.. Might as wel spend the time to give ppl all the options possible.. Any idea how much mem card space it will take to implement it?

regarding memory card size....i've actually been dabbling in auto installer discs with lots of different softmod setups. that way, you're working with a 650 MB limit (or 4400 mb limit for a dvd) instead of the 8.

you could just have a memory card installer that installed a very stripped down version of UXE (heck, you wouldn't even need to install a dashboard as nkpatcher would load the DVD installer without one). from there you've got a lot more install options.

that's not particularly relevant to this thread, but could perhaps come in handy if it ended up being a rather beefy exploit. PM me i suppose if anyone is at all interested in doing something like that. (i'm sure it would be fairly easy to implement.)

compressed zip file of fonts will be around 4-5 mb I guess.. add 1mb of xboxdash.xbe and 2 mb of dashboard there.. I guess we can put it under 8MB with .rar..

[triggernum5]

I just meant the additional files eh is working on, my installer is sitting at roughly 7MB, but I could strip dvdx2 at a whim.. Perhaps this would allow me to strip UEEE as well, I don't know yet.. Regarding the softmod disc, I actually have my own that I use when the dvd drive in whatever box I'm modding will read it.. Some drives are a bitch, so I hope this will squeeze into 8MB..

Given the color change i found this (blue wasn't in ur sig)

Thanks for the idea and offer dudes but (IMO) this isn't package material eh. (I posted the steps above merely to assist others with trying the 5680 dash for themselves, and/or understanding the concept.)

But i would go for ROE if i where guessing

@Cmiz i softmod every box i do like that, memory card installer (just UXE/nkpatcher) and a simple installer CD containing a shadowc file and apps.

yeah, me too....i was wondering if anybody wanted to make a generalized distro though. it seems enthusiasm is lackluster though so perhaps we'll just stick to memcard installers for the time being...

[Cio]

Hmz i think it would be nice to have an installer disk that can be used to either install on a chip/tsop box AND finish up a softmod. (edit: finish up my own UXE install or any exploit with a virtual C, a shadowc.img of 260 MB is included on the CD)

I made one for myself out of desperation.. but as i know evox files can't be hosted on xbins (if im wrong on this please point it out). It just installs avalaunch/dvd2xbox/xbmc/linksbox/emus and is only ~250 MB rarred

IF an installer using evox to copy files would still be hosted on xbins... could someone point out how i can "submit" this?

i actually use unleashx because i've come to like it a little better and also you can rar things.

i think basically the deal with xbins is that they won't directly host evox releases...but if a distro just happens to include the dash, they're not going to refuse it. i think they're going for the principle of the thing...not trying to be assholes, y'know?

[eh.]

@Cio: excellent point about the green (and the HULK exploit). However, on this occasion it was re. the X-S connection (and the daily countdown ending on May 3).

[eh.]

Beta status... it's taken us longer than anticipated to establish the foundations, but everything's in place now. ("Thank you SlaYer!" for most recently having something unexpected!)

There will be two types of testers - the existing ("UEEE pioneers") plus an "above board" group.

The latter includes you if you're interested. No need to contact me; just visit the thread, share your ideas and see what evolves!

Knowing what the original testers already had (and didn't) is enough to begin with...

wait a sec....i'm really confused....

i remember that thread...but i thought the general conclusion was that it wasn't really anything revolutionary to the scene. (except for krayzie's SCEEE switcher, which was awesome, but most people favored coldbooting anyways). have you modified this exploit in some way?

Knowing what the original testers already had (and didn't) is enough to begin with...

i have a copy of a UEEE setup that i can install...and i remember using it....but i don't really see what i'm supposed to be doing or looking for. is this a "make your own softmod" or do you actually have a new exploit and you're just making us figure it out? what i mean is: is this basically a variation on UEEE?

your confused...

I'm excited, whats this all about?

what new dash updates have occured since the UEEE release? i don't really know what else this could be (nor what was in slayers...are you talking about the current release or an older version?)
is this relavent at all? perhaps this coupled with the uber xonlinedash? am i hot? cold? (though not as cold as you guys up north! that's for sure! )

your confused...

I'm excited, whats this all about?

most of us are about as in the dark as you...all i can say is....read up!


edit: tired, not making as much sense as i'd like...and posting wrong links to things...
