Just A Lil' Linux/cat Info...
« on: November 25, 2003, 04:43:00 AM »
I am using a standard MS Memory card, I think it is 8MB or something like that.  Well it only fits up to 1MB worth of a BIOS so I can't store two BIOSes to accomodate 256K and 1MB XBoxes.  So simple thing to do is just store a 256K BIOS onto the memory card and you can grow it within your telnet session before running raincoat.

mv bios.bin 256k.bin
cat 256k.bin  256k.bin  256k.bin  256k.bin  > bios.bin

Then flash with raincoat like normal.

NOTE: For some reason this kernel or userland tools is slightly buggy, if you rename or move the files too much then they just don't take hold properly.  But just follow what I did above and don't move files around too much and it works.  This has been tested...
