Mechinstaller Problems
« on: July 12, 2005, 11:43:00 PM »

I am trying to use the Mechinstaller to get linux on my xbox, however, I believe my dashboard is the newer version.  So I need to downgrade the dashboard and I am just a little confused on how to do this.  I have searched everywhere and have not found anything that makes sense.  I am able to ftp into my xbox and see the files and whatnot.  Now am I suposed to overwrite the xboxdash.xbe with the older version? if so, where can I get this older version?  I believe my xbox use to run the older version but was updated. So would it be on the xbox somewhere and I can just get it there?  If anyone can help me that would be great.  Thanks a lot and I am sorry if this is posted somewhere else, I looked quickly but did not see anything.  Thanks again.

dude get rid of that mechinstaller. It's ancient and dangerous for your xbox. Look more into the newer exploits.

Krayzie has a nice installer that can be found in the usual places.
