Second that, i'd like to know the same thing...

How do you go from an ISO to the files on a FAT32 harddisk?
Is burning it to DVD and extracting it with xexloader the only option, or could you do this on a PC?

use Schtrom360Xtract to extract the files from a .iso image, than patch with x360gamehack and put the files on the hdd.

tools>XDVDFX XTR, check the box beside of "image name", brows to your .iso.
than brows to the place you want to extract to "extraction path"
press "Load imgage/disc", select all the folders than click on "extract"

Because the Wii isn't doing it through LPT, it's doing it through a different bus with a much higher speed. LPT is what would make it take 16 hours to dump. If you're dumping it through USB, it's considerable less, I think 15-20 minutes.

A 512MB Nand dumped over USB takes around 1 hour.

Im Having some problems with 0.15. some games run jumpy. Some work perfectly.  Cant seem to find anyone elso complaining so im thinking it might just be my console.
Game boots up but then freezes then might play a little more then freezes again. Also does the same on some arcade games. Any ideas? I have tried different HDD's and tried putting the game on the standard HDD but acts the same.

Speechless...

I love the idea of just using an external hdd. Fry's had 1 tb for $90 a few days ago. Maybe should have grabbed it?

Xbmc360!!!! Almost ?

Are you running freeboot or XBReboot? XBR seems to have some slowdown problems.

wow this is great cant wait  to get to do this.

It's an XBR issue not your console. 80% of my games are unplayable (from either my external USB drive, DVD drive or official Microsoft HDD). Most will play fine for the first level or 5-20min but then randomly freeze. It's to be expected though. It's still very early days and I'm sure there's tons of bugs to be fixed before we see a stable hacked dash. Can't really complain, it's a good taste of what's to come   . Just be patient and wait for an update or buy a Cygnos and install Freeboot.

Looking forward to trying this new version of XeXLoader

Yeah, links the wallpaper would be great! =)

Well I've been working with the FreeXeX team on things other than the XexLoader and I can tell you that both of things have been and are continuing to be looked into, but they're not as simple as they sound. Xorloser didn't make his XexTool's later revisions open-source so everything on that part has to be reversed from scratch, and the 360 kernel automatically encrypts all network traffic, so right now a way to disable the encryption is being looked into so we can have an FTP server. Just be patient.

Well, I've come to know xextool in version 5.2, I don't know if older versions with available sources could do the patching too. What about that Gamehacker5.2? It is said it's based on xextool 5.2. No sources either?

Are you sure about the automatic encryption? I mean, we can play video and music from an UPNP-server. The access to that server can't be encrypted, also the server won't encrypt the data it sends to the 360, so there has to be a way around the encryption already in the original dashboard/kernel...



Another pretty neat thing would be the possibility to flash the NAND by software on the 360. As xexloader is on the way of becoming a dashboard, this could be a feature like it was back on the original xbox with EvoX. Otherwise a seperate tool would be equally good. No need for the LPT hack anymore once the box is flashed (assuming people are smart enough not to flash nonworking images!). Maybe even "smart flashing", flashing a new image around the configblock and the KV block Also, this should be really fast!

On the matter of testing images, would it be possible to transfer the image to RAM and test it before it is flashed? As far as I know the original NAND content is copied to RAM on startup, so maybe the pointers could be set to another set of kernel data and reboot?

Thanks.

Awesome news. Maybe I can finally take my original Xbox out of my cabinet and retire it to my closet.

However, I'm going to wait on a media center sort of all-in-one solution before I get into the scene again.
