Recovery/Install worked without flaw, yellow writing at top of recovery mode screen is still off the top of the screen on my tv
power then eject doesn't seem to cause the green flashing light, i'm also hoping it doesn't happen any more after power is disconnected for a while
(this is finally what drove me to run the update
)
Repair HDD Upgrade - good move
, will it damage the save games on the new HD if its performed? should it be performed by people who have already done the e: drive format with evox (as per my guide?)
I will test the HD upgrade wizard et al when I next have to mod an xbox
Restoring EEPROM from BIN, fantastic feature! I tested it... seems to work
Restoring from Backup, its probably still worth while to prompt a user to perform an eeprom backup the first time they run XOS in their xbox when there is no backup? Too many newbies don't make a backup, and then screw up their eeprom.
New Improved QuickBoot with Timeout rocks
), much easier to use than having only a few milliseconds to press the controller in just the right way
Can you make it so that pressing "start" on the timeout screen aborts the timeout? (ie goes straight to the main screen)
Launch Item -> Add Flash Item, file list still doesn't seem to be in alphabetical order (i don't know what order it is in), rather than using an empty name for bioses which don't have a known checksum it'd be much better to use the filename less the .bin extension.
Keyboard, no insertion point detracts from the ease of use, means you can't see spaces which have already been typed... helps those with no short term memory
Ability to view/reset the LED colour without having to delete and re-add a bios would be nice.
Not being able to see the LED colour on the LED/Xternal LED when picking a LED colour like you could in XOS1.1 is a feature I miss and was way cool just for demonstrating the niftyness of the Xenium's RGB led
Cool, gateway and dns settings seem to have been grabbed via DHCP now
))
SMB server doesn't require dynamic IP
), haven't tested yet as the OS I'm currently running only supports SMB to IP addresses/domain names.
The Web Interface is *VERY* promising! Flashing via the web is very neat, as you can type the name quite easily
, Actually, its more than promising, its extremely useful
. Can you add an option to change the video mode. This would solve all the problems where people change their video mode and then they can't change it back because they can't see what they're doing!
Sometimes when I go into Xenium OS it comes up in black n white, doesn't really matter, I think its just my TV detecting the xbox as an NTSC source before it switches to PAL or something like that, in fact, if its grey and I force the TV to PAL, then it works fine, if I then put it back on auto its working fine, so I guess its just a minor issue with XOS booting into NTSC then switching very quickly to PAL. I guess turning the TV off/on would also fix the problem... I wonder if people with rolling video aren't just experiencing the same thing.
The blue hilite rather than greying the text is MUCH better
(I nearly didn't notice it
)
telnet info command looks like lots of fun
still need to update the help command to at least list all the commands, along with probably a warning
FTP client compatibility still needs work.
I think the most important thing now is to optimize the partition copier so that it can be used to upgrade large drives to larger drives, it is one of the potentially killer features of the xenium, and its a pitty its not really practical currently.
My favourite pie-in-the-sky feature would be a simple file manager to make it so you could fully install an xbox with a USB thumbdrive
Tests performed on a Crystal Edition 1.4 Xbox with Xenium ICE
