So my follow up question is going to remain the same.
How many more posts are you going to make before you take my original suggestion and even ATTEMPT to format your MU.
You've been given plenty of reassurances that there is no risk in this so why haven't you even tried it yet?
I'm just waiting for you final post that says something like, "I formatted my internal MU and it worked after that... weird. Who would have thought"
No not angry, its just frustrating when someone asks for help, you give them a suggestion and they say, "I don't want to try your suggestion because it may not work" and then after that posts three more pages of runaround.
Well the mature thing to do when someone doesn't want to try your suggestion is to walk away, not get wound up with them and keep insisting that they do so.
Your suggestion made no sense to me as the systemupdates certainly never used to get installed on the MU and I don't believe that's changed (particularly as some 360s don't even have an internal MU), so I didn't see why I should need to format the MU. I'm not in the habit of blinding following suggestions that I can't see any sense in.
Anyway, I've managed to install the update now. I downgraded to DL2.09 and re-formatted my USB stick, but it might have just been coincidence that it worked after doing those. Toy Soldiers is working again, I can now see SysExt in the FSD2 File Manager and SMB access is working too.
There's still the problem that I can't access my USB stick in FSD2 or XexMenu, although it's clear now that this is separate from the systemupdate problem. I certainly used to be able to do so in the latter. I can't recall if I've tried from FSD2 but I think it was working there as well.
Do enjoy your wait for that ego-boosting post you were hoping for from me
