Problems With Chameleon
« on: February 22, 2005, 07:47:00 PM »

First of all the Slayers 2.6 is used too install the dashboard, programs, etc.  The Linux Menu is telling you that you need a bios to flash your chip.  Depending on your switch settings, you could use a combination of either  4x 256kb, 2x512kb, or 1x1024kb.  All these combinations depend on the switch settings.  My preference is to use the 256kb combo (this leaves you with 3 other back up banks).  Now making a flash cd.  You could use nero.  You first need a bios of your preference(make sure u have the correct size for the correct switch settings).  Name ur bios "LINUXBIO.BIN".  You might also want to put a dummy file on the the cd.  Just get any file that is around 100mb and name it "zzzzzz.zzz".  This just helps the xbox dvdrom in reading the bios.  Aftter finishing making the cd.  Boot ur xbox with chameleon installed and when it asks u for the cd just insert it in and all should go well(make sure u let it finish completely).  Now after flashing the chip you can use Slayers 2.6 to install whatever you need on your HD.
