Hotswaping Questions
« on: July 18, 2005, 04:45:00 PM »

Hello I was wondering if it was possible to extract the locking code for an HD without softmoding it only hotswaping.  I have a friend that wants to softmod his xbox but doesn't want to mess around with his current HD (like applying a softmod to it)  So I thought that I could somehow extract the locking code to use on a HD which I cloned from my softmod xbox and then lock the new drive using his code and swap drives when ever he wants to use his stock drive for XBL and his modded drive for XBMC and modded game types on Halo 2 (not cheating ones but legal ones found on halomods.com for fun on our LAN parties.)  If so how would I go about doing so?

gamesave is the easiest way. but if you wanna hotswap, then you need to mod his hd enuff to load evox to dump your eeprom.bin , then unmod the hd.

So there is no way for me to extract anything which will allow me to lock another hard drive without softmodding the original?

the old school exploits load up EvoX on your xbox so you can gain temporary FTP access to mod your xbox manually. go get one of those, run the backup feature on your xbox and grab the eeprom from the backup folder
