Xbmc As Main Dash
« on: July 04, 2009, 06:25:00 AM »

if you got it from t3ch try one of these:

DASHBOARD INSTALL
Option 1. Team XBMC's shortcut tool.
It's included in the _tools folder as SHORTCUT by TEAM XBMC.xbe + SHORTCUT by TEAM XBMC.cfg.
Instructions here: http://xbmc.org/wiki...=As_a_Dashboard (Option 1).
Rename the SHORTCUT by TEAM XBMC.xbe+.cfg & also EDIT the .cfg so it matches your config.
See APPLICATION INSTALL above.

Option 2. Thanks to an app called Team UIX's Xbe Shortcut Maker v1.0 by JbOnE, it's now easy...
Transfer contents of XBMC folder (this is VERY important since the tool is hardcoded) TO /E:/APPS/XBMC/.
Rename SHORTCUT by TEAM UIX.xbe to something your bios can boot (see http://xbmc.org/wiki...=As_a_Dashboard or read your BIOS README) and transfer to location your mod solution boots. No need to fiddle with HOME tag anymore, and future upgrades you need not to worry about this file (unless you move XBMC).

The link posted above does not take me to the right spot.  So if i rename the xbmc file to default.xbe and " i am not sure what to name the .cfg file nor do i no how to edit the file."  I put both of them directly in the C folder.  I assume i need to edit my bios to boot "C:\default.xbe right?

Any help is appriciated.

Rename the config file so it has the same name as the .xbe. in your case default.cfg. Edit it on your PC so it points to your XBMC default.xbe, in your case C:\XBMC\default.xbe. Edit your BIOS to boot C:\default.xbe.
