Redline99 released a small tool to remap bad blocks in an XBReboot image to match with your NAND chip, this could solve issues some people had trying to make XBReboot work:

Quote

This is a small tool that will remap bad blocks in a full 16mb "zeropaired" (xbreboot) nand image. It looks at the original Microsoft backup (that you should have) and figures out from the spare area the remapped bad blocks. You can also enter the block id's into the textbox. It does not modify the original MS image, but it does modify the zeropaired image. Run the app only one time, be sure to make a backup beforhand.

This app has had ZERO testing, If anything comes up I'll try and fix it, but I need some feedback.

This is only for 16mb images, non jasper.

Um will try this. Anything that make the remap easier can only be good.

Wow!!!!

Another week and maybee we can do all this from disk.. wishfull thinking,I remember splintercell gamesave hack well.
I know this will never happen But at First we needed cygnosis now just the onboard nand will do..
What next?

Who cares what c4eva and thx do... this is what its all about

I'm hooked again, checkin this site at least a couple ov times a day.. Just like the good ole days (xbox1 - evox - xbmc)

Big thanks to all thats making this possible

Why c4eva? He is a DVD hacker not kernel hacker.

Well buy the games instead of pirating them. The whole point of this to my mind is to be able to run homebrew easily and still play games on the same box.

This is true and its great to see the scene moving forward so fast but i'm not so sure this mod will be for everyone. One, its not noob friendly and two, i'm sure 90% of the people don't have exploitable consoles. I know i wish i had one

Its not that hard to find an exploitable kernel, i just asked my friends and anyone else if they had any dead xboxs. sure enough now have a falcon with hdmi and is exploitable 6717 , just ask around man its only gonna get harder to find them as time goes on.

+1 for "Well buy the games instead of pirating them. The whole point of this to my mind is to be able to run homebrew easily and still play games on the same box."

homebrew is awsome, still rocking the PSP2000 lol

Sure, playing Iso's on the 360 and decryption of owned Rockband DLC is cool, BUT it wouldn't be possible if there wasnt an interest in homebrew

JUST alone to be able to run MAME or any emulator is superb.

heck, who knows if overclocking the 360 CPU and GPU might happen because of homebrew
and a new way to eradicate RROD finally (fingers crossed lol)

I'm testing this right now. I have two bad blocks that, among 6 different reads, will not go away.

Will update on success/fail

Seems to have worked! I tried programming around the bad blocks but I got an E71 shortly after the xbox logo showed up....

Well there you have it. I had three bad blocks and it remapped it. Thanks creator!
