http://forums.xbox-s...howtopic=702837The answer seems to be "NO" the ZEPHYRS are not hackaeble unless you jump thru a loop and do alot of combinations of Falcon and Zephyr SMC and KV/CONFIG injections to get it right and CYGNOS might be the only way to do it safely.
I would strongly suggest NOT modding any ZEPHYRS until we hear from the XBR team and wait until the next release of XBR (if that is what your planning to test)
Something is definately wrong with that 8955--XBR-3b ZEPHYR nand image since both regular ZEPHYRS and those who receieved ZEPHYRS as warrenty replacemnets (CB=4580) after RROD do NOT seem to work with it properly.
I wont take any chances and brick my ZEPHYR-7363 kernel console until this is verified and I am NOT going to purchase a CYGNOS until I hear more.
p.s.
Does the old 7363 kernel in my ZEPHYR from last February 2009 boot up properly our DVD-DL games ripped with schtrom 4.0 using latest ixtreme v1.61 DVD firmware? Or should I flashback the DVD firmware to v1.4 since I get a message at bootup requesting a kernel update since 7363 is so old. For your information, the games wont start and sorry if its minor high jack question. I am spoofing a sammy MS28 into Hitachi 79FL with ixtereme v1.61. I figured I could at least play some games with it in the mean time until this XBR nand image problem is solved and never go online of course with it.
Hmm that would make sense because I did get XBR3b mostly working on a cygnos for a client of mine a few weeks back. Thanks for the added info, and I am definitely putting these boxes away until something new is released.
As for your question with dvd fw, I would just put it to the new nonstealth fw if you can since you have a sammy. it boots practically anything
