I guess Xbreboot has some freezing probs? Xboxhacker.net is down right now for me.

I get freezes on both from USB hard drive and from XDVDFS Dvd burn.
Extracted with Redline's xbox image browser, patched with default options recursively with x360gamehack.

I'm using a falcon....8955_1, xbreeboot.

Has anyone gotten Xbreboot to work without freezing?
Whats odd is I'm also freezing launching from previously backup up DVD9 discs, which would indicate its an Xbreboot problem. That backup never froze from standard m$ kernel.

If anyone is having 100% success with Xbreboot .05 _1, please share.

in xexloader it goes like this usb://360/banjokazzoie/default.xex

Are you trying full retail games?

Braid is working just fine for me, but full retail disc based games are troublesome...at least Banjo.

Its just a matter of how soon that update comes.
Damn I wish I had the knowledge to even begin to try fix it.

I am working on a tutorial to do this, it should be available later tonight. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

Im at work at the moment so I can't take any other pictures of my setup, but I will post them in my tutorial for sure.

Any updates on this? I'm leaning towards your implementation of the hard drive problem as it's very nice and avoids unnecessary power needs for an external USB drive, but I'm worried that it might be a pain to get games onto the drive (unless I just keep my PC open with a SATA dongle hanging out of it).

I did find on Amazon a USB-to-SATA "plug" that you just insert a bare drive into and it gets read as a USB drive by Windows, so that might be nice. But it's $50...

Tutorial is complete!

It's short and to the point, hope everyone likes it.

As I said... The problem is with ripped retail DVDs.... XBLA stuff works fine.
keine: So you are having the same freezing problems even with the DVD in the drive ? I didn't even bother testing that.

So, is there anyone else out there that has a fully working Xbox with XBReboot that can play retail DVD's ripped to the HD ?

what directory do you put files in mame to show in mame menu?

That depends on the configuration of Mame's options.ini. The one that you can find at the regular place uses the following:

CODE

rompath = usb:\Emus\Mame\roms
samplepath = usb:\Emus\Mame\samples
.... and so on

So far, every retail DVD I tried to rip and patch, froze when I tried to play from it.
Some games freeze randomly, and some at a specific spot.
I tried playing from an external USB harddisk, aswell as the original Xbox harddisk.
I also attempted using XeXTool and Gamehacker, with varied parameters, but that didn't seem to fix it.

Whoever is having success, can you please detail your system, and parameters so we can try to pinpoint why some people are having problems, and some are not ? I suggest something like this:

MB: Xenon
Rebooter: XBR 8955_1
Game: ....
Parameters Used: .....
Media Used: USB HD, USB flash, or Sata HD
I suspect that it might be something like, Freeboot working, and not XBR.

Maybe freeboot uses different patches for different consoles. I have a zephyr running XBR and also have freezes. Looked at the freeboot package and there seem to be differences in both the base and console patches per console. Look in the bin dir. Filesize seems to be the same however in a hexeditor they look different.

Does anyone with an xenon have the same freezing problem??

downloaded retail modern warfare 2 to 360 hdd. all it does for me is install all files. tried to play default.exe file and game will try to boot but then says disk read error.

tried moving to diffrent locations of hdd and still will not show up in dashboard,just in xexloader as single
files.

it can take a some time for dasboard to show files in hdd with game in dvd, but i just dont load game till system showes content on hdd.

every game tested arcade or cp3 have worked great no freezing.

i take it you didnt patch the game with x360gamehack.

COD4 MW2 works perfectly for me.. Just played Orange Box a couple of hours, worked great.

Think xexloader doesnt like operation flashpoint (it does have ALOT of files in the root directory)
