OS2 Booted up fine, but after I tried to refresh my network it hung, so I turned off my xbox and now it FRAGS. Reboots 3 times then frags. I'll try the recovery mode by flipping the switch.

I hope I can recover my xenium or thats $50 down the drain.

Okay, can anyone clarify this for me? I remember OzXodus saying that it was a multitasking OS. I assumed that this meant it would still be running in the background after the BIOS loaded up. It now appears that is not the case but it would be so cool, being able to ftp files over to your box while playing a game or running some other app.

No, that's not what multitasking means and it will never happen for the simple reason that it would be almost impossible to maintain any sort of compatibility with retail games if you tried to keep the FTP server resident after boot.

Multitasking means that the OS is designed to handle multiple threads at once - in other words do multiple things simultaneously when your in the XeniumOS.

No,

Because you have a new OS you need to reflash the 4 banks.

It will take care of the bank modes for you.

Now its on step insted of 3.
