Ndure Installer for PC 3.1, New release Options

[kingroach]

I just updated the Ndure 3.0 installer to 3.1.. The main change is the Nkpatcher 11_U04.. xman954's new nkpatcher warrented a new release.. main changes are:

NKpatcher 11_U04: Better nkpatcher with more functions. This version of nkpatcher is more modular. Its possible to change LED/Video/Fan/dashboard path/Retail-Basic settings on the fly by placing runtime config files in E:\NKP11\ folder.For a better description and changelog read NKP11_U04 readme.

Basic/Retail Option: Switching between Basic and Retail is done by nkpatcher. Setup creates same set of files for both installation.

XBOXHDM Installer: Fixed xboxhdm script bugs.

Clock Check: Clock check is disabled by default. It can be enabled by selectiong "enable clock check" option in softmod and nkpatcher settings.

eeprom backup: instead of evox.. this release includes eeprom_reader by xman954.. Which will backup the eeprom in E:\NKP11\ folder.. virtual eeprom also been moved to E:\NKP11\ so just backing up the eeprom will take care of virtual eeprom.

Ndure Installer: Completely recoded. Its more flexible and esier to use. No need to select kernel separately for font and ST.DB, selecting kernel once will reflect changes on other settings.

you can copy contents of XBMC folder to E:\dash\ to make it your default dashboard.

there is a shadowc in the xbox.. when you look into c drive using ftp, you see the shadowc which has original dashboard files in it.. you can see real C if you place a file called shadowc_off.bin in E:\NKP11\ folder or run E:\ndts\default.xbe

normally there is about 4 GB E drive. There you can store some movies/games.. Also if you have a seagate hard drive, then you can format F drive to get extra 2 GB on F drive..

What happens if the XBMC does not start and the default.XBE is overwritten with the XBMC one (I plan to use the XBMC Shortcut utility)?
The file called shadowc_off.bin can be any file with that name or there is a dedicated one ?
I've read that for having a shadow C write enble, I have to replace the shadowC.IMG with the one on the computer crated under NDURE\C\SHADOWC. Is this because the SHADOWC.IMG on the E folder is read only ?
What happens if I write a wrong file ?


Sorry if I'm making so many questions but it's the first time I play with a soft mod and I don't want to open again the XBOX for a new hotswap.

Thanks in advance.
