Perhaps you have the 8gb drive (Western Digital), and not the 10gb drive (Seagate)?

Me too i added the section regarding format etc. into my own ini file it came up with the format option press this click yes, it then just hangs and yes i have a Seagate drive.

That tutorial is one way of doing it. Easier is just ftp in with Flashfxp and do the following 2 raw commands:

Formatpath \Device\Harddisk0\Partition6

Your message window will show a key returned from that command. Then do:

Formatdrive key

That's it. No messing with .ini files. Takes 30 seconds.

but does that work with the standard seagate hard drive and also with a non-evox mod chip?

Im sorry, what do you mean by raw commands? where do i type the info?

socrates · « **Reply #7 on:** November 09, 2002, 01:05:00 PM »

Well that would explain alot, i have an enigmah final modchip so that means i cant do this then.

What about us guys who didnt even get to format?? we just go to reboot the xbox so that we can format and instead the xbox just keeps rebooting on the xbox logo over and over again?? does that mean we cant do it>?

I did this with FLASH FXP and I got the extra 2 gigs on F drive instead of E drive, is there a way I can put the 2 gigs in E drive??

socrates · « **Reply #11 on:** November 10, 2002, 01:18:00 PM »

Hey how did ya get it to work?? what kind of modchip you got?

Scan-C · « **Reply #12 on:** November 10, 2002, 01:42:00 PM »

you can't combine it.the partition sizes are fixed.c and e are fixed and f is the rest of the hd.no way to combine it

socrates · « **Reply #13 on:** November 10, 2002, 02:00:00 PM »

So then its true? the tuturial lied about anyone being able to do this? cause i have the enigmah final modchip and i cant seem to do it so i guess it lies.

connected with flash fxp, went to raw command typed in: Formatpath \Device\Harddisk0\Partition6

It gave me a key, then I typed: formatdrive key

And 2 GB appeared on drive F, it used to have 0b, now it has 2GB, still I want to combine it with the 5GB on drive E.

I have Evolution X 2.2 modchip

This worked for me too, now got all my apps on the f: drive, sweet.

Using Matrix chip flashed with Evox 2.5 ybox etc.
