Please provide more information. Did you run this package, then alter something and now your xbox boots to error 21?

If you allready have the game save on the HDD and your clock is set (your xbox has not been unplugged for more than a few hours), then you should be able to load the mini-linux from SC and either use UDE to reinstall the hack or use c-restore to revert your C-drive to what it was like before you installed the hack.

If you havent got the game save on the HDD and cant boot to your MS dash, then you have to hotswap!

Hi
Sorry but i can't find ltools to download from anywhere.
Did the name change or can somebody give me a hint?

thx

Hmm, I don't see it in the usual place, is it in some strange directory?

I am looking under Exploits/Packages/UDE and I don't see anything

[ldots]

And you do know how to access 'the usual places' ?
Look here

A hint : It's for the 'XBOX', its an 'Operating System', its 'linux'

[grapp]

ok other ftp program and now it works
thx again

There could very well be updates. Is there something you feel is missing? If you have any ideas, feel free to post them.

Yup, just place the update.xbe from Slayers in the files folder. Do not compress or uncompress any files. Not the ones already there, not the one you add (update.xbe).

All commands of this package will work out of the box, but the UDE installer needs the correct version of the update.xbe. So for the UDE command, the update.xbe is not optional! If it is not found the installation is aborted, as you have seen. You cannot get the hack running without the correct update.xbe (md5sum is checked to verify it's the right version). I could not add the update.xbe without breaking the rules of 'the usual places'.

So leave everything as it is in the package - only add update.xbe to the E:\UDATA\xxxxxxxxxxx\xxxxxxxxxxx\files folder.

...Trouble is I'm using the update.xbe off the slayer's disc !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And it's Slayers version 2.5 Final ?

Anyway, if it (or any files called update.xbe) is in the files folder you would not get the "Cannot find ..." error. You would get the md5sum of the update.xbe you put there and the expected/correct md5sum.

But thanks for explaining about what needs raring and what can be left as is.

Nothing needs raring. I would start from a fresh copy of ltools_*.zip and only add update.xbe

[ldots]

OK - you used the MA version right?

Did you delete the old E:\UDATA\4d530017 folder and started from a fresh copy ?

Then upload the update.xbe to E:\UDATA\4d530017\62D648EBF155\files
Linux is case-sensitive, so it should be update.xbe, not update.Xbe or Update.xbe or, .... (you get the picture).

If it still doesn't work please post the exact erro message and try to do the command : ls -l /mnt/E/UDATA/4d530017/62D648EBF155/files
from the telnet connection and post the output.

You can get the md5sum of the files by doing :
md5sum /mnt/E/UDATA/4d530017/62D648EBF155/files/update.xbe.

Are you absolutely sure you upload it to the folder listed in the error-message.
Try the : ls -l /mnt/E/UDATA/4d530017/62D648EBF155/files/
command, when in linux, and write down the output.

Something most be going wrong when you ftp in the file.

This is really crazy!

Your prompt is fine. Only possible explanation is that the file-permissions on your E-drive are strange/wrong.

When booting to the mini-linux, try running :
chmod -R 755 /mnt/E

Then retry the : ls -l /mnt/E/UDATA/4d530017/62D648EBF155/files

If that does not list the directory content, then retry it going one directory down at a time :
ls -l /mnt/E/UDATA/4d530017/62D648EBF155
ls -l /mnt/E/UDATA/4d530017/

etc.

I just tried the package on my xbox. Uploaded update.xbe, UDE installed fine.

Quality job!


U would not believe what I did wrong, please dont shout

...Through all the deleting and installing I must of deleted update.xbe from the UDATA folder on E:

...Trouble was I still had a copy of it in my ltools folder on E:, hence I thought I must still have a copy in the right place!!!!

It really started to dawn on me as the commands in linux showed that it definitely wasn't listed step-by-step/folder-by-folder.

Transferred it over and ....well u know the rest

[ldots]

I'm not gonna shout , just delete the post I was gonna submit with even more suggestions.

Phew, nothing wrong with the installer then. I knew from the beginning that having the user add the update.xbe themselves could cause some trouble, but it had to be done this way...
