Hello as an xbox live precaution I have all my non-xbox material on the F: partition. Now Im looking for info on how to boot bsx from the root of F. What will I need to do hex edit it, if so what do I change. Also what hex editor should I use. Please help me out with this issue I would really like to get started using this cool dash.

Use a Pc app. called XBtool. It has GUI who is really easy to use.

whatever your bios currently boots from F: you can name the blackstormx xbe to that name and put it in F:. then you just have to edit config.xbx to that new .xbe name.

do you mean you want everything (BlackStormX folder, bsXdash.xbe, and BlackstormXCP.xbe) to be on F:\? Well if you want it that way, try this out and let me know if this works for you, i have not been able to test this very extensivly, because currently i have to f drive

oh ya, this was done with for v1.1
what you need to do is open up the bsXdash.xbe in any hex editor and go to the HEX offset 00002852 and change partition2 to partition6
save and close the file.

now open up BlackstormXCP.xbe with the hex editor. go to hex offset 00020C6A and change Partition2 to Partition6

now open open default.xip/default.xap and search for BlackstormXCP.xbe u need to change the line right above it; change PatcherPath = "\\Device\\Harddisk0\\Partition2"; to PatcherPath = "\\Device\\Harddisk0\\Partition6";
now open up default.xip/config.xap and repeat the same step as above

that should just about do it, hopefully it works 100%

Thats the info I was looking for. Wish me luck guys, oh and also there should be some type of option for people who want to boot from different partition in the next release.

isn't it also possible to put all the BSX stuff unedited on F:\ and boot via Xselect afterwards?

You wouldn't have to edit anything then, would you?

Just askin

Hi tayior7,

Just one little question that may interest lots of people:

Will it be possible to launch the release 1.2 from C: or E: or F: partition ???

Thanks in advance

Ok then ...

In version 1.2, we will make sure it is possible to run of c: e: or f:

Hope that will help most of you

yeah, that's easy enough, but for now, the xbe can easily go in the root of F: as long as everything else is in the root of C:. changing and saving settings might work oddly, though.

hmm...I have some ideas for this that will be in 1.2...stay tuned.
