Does this mean we no longer need a DVD drive to get Xell up and running? (since couple my xbox units have broken drives and lost dvdkeys)

You haven't needed the dvd drive for roughly a billion years.

DVD keys can be recovered from exploitable boxes. (Even without a physical dvd drive)

doesn't work.. it  installed fine,

but now it has a nag message in french, (excuse my poor french translation:)

It's necessary to have Cygwin + Python installed


BUT i have this installed 100% on my PC (d:\cygwin)

i'm guessing its looking for it @ c drive and it doesn't check the registry for it.

You can change it to english by clicking the english flag in the bottom left corner

it looks for cygwin on c:\cygwin , no idea if it can be changed


what worries me more is that i have compiled hack.bin and my8955.bin using this tool and the technique described in the readme for freeboot and the hashes don't match.
anyone used this new tool yet and had success ?

Thanks. i've been wanting to do exactly thesame thing. Guess I'll just stick to using the freeboot readme..
/uninstalls.

also i wasn't able to change the language on the error message i got.

i figured cygwin wasn't found, so i had indeed been looking for a config file to specify the directory of cygwin.. no go

This tool works great, My Xbox360 was the first one flashed by the tool before it was released.
Thanks a lot SoulHeaven for what you did. Please donate to him smile.gif

Don't forget, you need cygwin in C drive, and also need your own patched smc created by Cygnos Toolbox.

Yes , looks like a great tool.

Any ideas why the hashes of the flash files made by this tool and those made by the 'old' manual method (as per readme with freeboot) do not match ???

So with a Cygnos chip, can I install the hack on a NXE Xbox 360? I think this is probably a noobish question, but the only places I can find answers to this have conflicting answers.  Thanks in advance.

Can't get it to work. I getthis error message when I try to prepare the xell pathed nand:
"A error occurred during the script excecution. Try to run it manually under Cygwin to identify the problem"
