Since there is a lack of instructions on how to burn 360 ISO's under linux i decided to post directions here, I apoligize if I have placed them in the wrong place.

QUOTE

CODE

growisofs -use-the-force-luke=dao -use-the-force-luke=break:1913760  -dvd-compat -speed=2 -Z /dev/hda=IMAGE.000

don't use it on Xtreme  type  iso's though. the nulified video part confuses mkisofs and it won't take the user specified layer break.
Works fine on wxripper iso's though.

you can see what type the iso is with the following command:

CODE

file image.000

this will show the filetype. if it's a Xtreme iso it will be detected as data, because it doesn't have a iso header.
if it's a wxripper iso it will be reported as a iso file.

maybe this could be solved by using a real nulifed iso (with iso header) instead of a plain nulified binary?

Props to Pandor for this post over at xboxhacker.net

Now for those Xtreme ISO's which seem to have a problem you can use this fix someone made which was intended to be done under windows so you could burn Xtreme Iso's with Imgburn and other programs. This fix works under Linux. I don't know the details on why it works, I just know it works,

CODE

java -jar imgbpatch.jar

Here is the tool

Props to JSR whoever he is, he is the author of this lifesaver.

Here are the readme for this tool for those of u who are interested.

Many thanks.Will Gnomebaker and K3B burn satisfactorily ?Do DVD Burner settings have to be altered in any way ?

Cheers.

Giv'er buddy.

Good for you, been waiting for this for a while - well, linux support anyway.

Does anyone know where to locate a copy of imgbpatch.jar? Google does not guide the way?? ((

Compliments of misterbeetz, thanks

what about actual iso files .. how do you burn those those .. this is what i got when i tried the same way as the method above


Executing 'builtin_dd if=vortex-cod3.iso of=/dev/cdrom obs=32k seek=0'
/dev/cdrom: splitting layers at 1913760 blocks
:-( unable to SEND DVD+R DOUBLE LAYER RECORDING INFORMATION: Input/output error


is it possible to use k3b or gnome baker to burn the iso image.. i wish there was more linux support for the 360.. id love to be able to prep a firmware and actually flash the drive with out having to use windows

[Trippen]

well i couldnt figure out how to edit my last post so sorry for the double post.. i guess it was just a user error on my side.. after getting the same error from k3b i decided to say maybe its the burner.. and rebooted and bam.. the command line context worked with it being a file.iso

[cyberdork33]

k3b actually uses growisofs to burn discs so there may be a way to set the layer break in it and burn with that

Here is another useful thread that may be useful to some.
