Seems like it does not depend on the mfg date but the version of the kernel that is shipped. There are various production lines and factories where xboxes are made.

C: is the system drive.
D: is the DVD ROM drive
E: is the space where music and gamesave and stored
F: available only in modded sets
G: available only in modded sets

There are another three drives that are for caching.

Oh yeah where can I find the kernal of my xbox.  thanks again

Well, i've spent 3 days from 10pm-4am each night, constantly reading through these posts on this thread. Have gotton all the files, did exactly what instructions said, checking each step 4-5 times. Starting over, doing it again to make sure. And each time i get the stupid "max 100 soundtracks error you messed up the audio exploit" message. I have a v1.5 XBox, and i have tried to delete the ST.DB file and copy it back into the directory again, entered the keys in order, and still get the same "max 100 soundtracks error you messed up the audio exploit" message. Is it really possible to do this with 5101 dashboard and a v1.5 machine or what??? I can't believe it is right now.
I've done this over and over and no success. I've even got the Audio_Signed_Bios_Loader.RAR file, where you just have to copy everything from the e stuff, and c stuff, and that also does the EXACT same thing. I'm feeling pretty much that ist's NOT possible. I only WISHED i had the error 21 screen. I would at least feel i'm getting somewhere that way at least.
Doing the 007-memory card exploit using my friends modded system works great the 1st time i tried it (that's what i use to ftp everything.) works like a charm. I'm trying to get this exploit working cause my 007 game is due back at the rental store in about 7 days (game pass). I should be getting my XBit mod chip in any day now, but i would've liked to get the audio expoit working on my v1.5-dash5101 machine, so i can do this to my brothers machine (bought exact same unit.)

Could anyone maybe help out here with any advice please?? Thank you. I've only had my xbox fro about 2 weeks now, but because of my friends modded xbox, i've been reading the shit out of forums and exploits for a while now, and been also trying them for 5 days straight myself using my all off work time, so i'm not quite close to a newbie with this stuff.

Help please? Thanx

[djdafreund]

Ok, my friend uploaded the older version dashboard to my ftp site, i'll try that, thanx.

OK guys, I am having issues.
I tried the tutorial and all I got was a black screen with some colorful lines on the top of the screen. I figured out it had something to do with the Focus chipset. So, I got PBL 1.4 Signed by Yoshigiro. I also got the 4981.67 bios. Wow, got past the black screen. Now I get the Phoenix. I press to pick the xboxrom.bin and it got to a Red Splash screen where it sayd Linux V1.4 by Yoshihiro. It just sits there. If I hit the A button it takes me back to a black screen with some text on it. The last line says Calculating 2bl entry point and it just sits there. How far am I from getting this to work?

I used the audio_sl_audio-key exploit 51KB from 9/11/2003
Saved it into E:\TDATA\fffe0000\music

I used the 4981.67_256k.bin from 1/20/2004
I loaded it into XBTool_1.0.22 and turned on the BFM flag.
Changed the 2nd xbe to point to e:\evox\evoxdash.xbe
Saved it as xboxrom.bin into the E:\bioses

used xbedump default.xbe -audio on the default.xbe that came with the PBL1.4 by Yoshihiro.

Renamed the out.xbe into linux.xbe and put it in e:\ along with boot.cfg
Copied the rest of the 1.4 PBL files into e:\

Thanks


K


p.s. Dash is 4920 and Kernel is 5101.  Board is V1.5 with Focus Chip. The drives don't show up as c and e in hdddriver. They show up as system and user_data but looking at the subdirectories they look like what the c and e are supposed to look like.

[kostakis]

Miyada, thanks, I'll try it tomorrow and I will post my results.

Miyada, I did as you said but I used the key from the 1.4QuickBoot PBL signed
and I get this error:
Kernel extraction failed. See log file for more information.
The log says:
Loading ROM image file 'C:\XBOX\4981.67_bfm_fixed\4981.67_bfm.bin'...
Extracting 2BL image...
Extracting compressed KERNEL image... Invalid config params for kernel extract!


I must be missing something.

aight  i've got a 5530 box, focus chip, and everything specified except i used 007 to get into the hd. The audio hack works perfect, loads pbl 1.3.5i and gets to the screen after the blurred animation, where it starts going through the eeproms and rc4 key. Then it locks up at  "2bl entry point" and it doesn't move...

Any ideas on why its doin this

I tried some other stuff like changing the debug to true...
And does "PBL 1.3.5i_signed_audio_exploit" rc4 key or eeproms need to be changed to xbox specific or debug...or is that key debug...

Any ideas, please please post

[krayzie]

Damnit where have you been the last few months. PBL does NOT work with 5530 kernels. None of them and no mather what you do.

[WBAGAM]

Ok one question I have a 5530 kernel and i want to know if i can load mxm off of this thing or tutorial as u say

Hey.. this is my tutorial on Hacking your way into an 1.4/1.5 with Hotswap
with clean exploits (No Gamesave..). Its also possible thru
FTP access to your Xbox, but for that you will need to have your Xbox
modded or exploited already..
(This exploit is going to be using the AUDIO Hack..)
If i made any mistakes in this Tutorial, or you have suggestions,
please reply

Your Brains
Your 1.4/1.5 Xbox
An Computer with the following Apps:
PBL1.3.5i_signed_audio_exploit
XBtool_1.0.12.b4
Xecuter2.4979_REPACK
audio_sl_audio-key (Allows both Swapless and AudioCD Combo..)
Hdd Driver
An EvoX Version of your choise

Step 1
Open up your XBox  And start it without any game.. Let it run for
about 10 minute so the Harddisk spins down, and then turn on your PC..
BEFORE the HDD's/CDRom Drives get detected, press PauseBreak.. Now,
Plugin the IDE Cable of pc into your XBox Harddisk (NOT the Powercable,
only the IDE Cable..). Press enter and if you are lucky, it detects
the xbox harddisk.. If not, search around on the forum for some more
information about the Hotswapping..

Step 2
Once your PC Is started with a detected Xbox Harddisk, start up HDD Driver..
You'll probally get alot of Error's, just Ignore them. Now, once your
in the HDD Driver, backup your XBox Harddisk in it (If you dont know
how, also check the forums for more information!).
After that, get the PBL1.3.5i_signed_audio_exploit.rar Unpacked,
change default.xbe to linux.xbe and upload them to your e: drive
(also the empty folder Bioses.. and upload them all the same way
they came out of the package! else it will fail..)
Now for the Bios.. Extract the Xecuter2.4979_REPACK, open the 4979.67.bin
bios (name should be similair to that) and turn on the 'BFM Flag'.
Also in XBTool, you can change the Xbox logo color's to your own (Just for fun )
Also, change your evoXdash.xbe drive to e: and the next to that, fill in evoxevoxdash.xbe
(Thats we're we going to install EvoX..) Now save the bios and name it :
xboxrom.bin and put it in E:bioses ..
Now unpack your audio exploit, and upload the ST.DB file to e:tdatafffe0000music
And last but not least, copy your EvoX files to e:evox.. Turn
of your pc, plug out the ide cable of your pc from your xbox hardisk
and plug in the Xbox IDE Cable..

okay everything is set up now Start up your Xbox without
any game, put in an audio cd, press B-Down-A-Right-Right-A-A-A and you
will get the the Phoenix Screen.. If its all scrambled, dont be affraid,
just wait, EvoX will load, nonscrambled

Thanks to the resources on Xbox Scene forum for getting me so far

I suspect my xbox to be 1.3.. think it works?

Ive been looking at the bert n ernie hotswap thing but people tell me audio exploit is WAY WAY better.. but now you tell me I need 1.4/1,5?

also when starting HDDdriver it tells me MFC42D.DLL cant be found so I'd have to use xlinux or fix HDD driver

Hey..


This is an tutorial specially for 1.4/1.5, since you need to change the Bios file else you will get crazy viewing of games etc.. There are ALOT of Tut's for 1.3 around.. Just look around and you will find them   And no you dont need 1.4/1.5 for Audio Exploit..

Oh  yeah btw.. search for that MFC42D.DLL on Google.. There are lots of sites to download it
