did you press the A(green) after setting time and before IGR
is the time your setting before the time you changed NKP check time too..

how does the dual/tri boot works? (i know it's an noob question ).
in the config.inc are a lot of options for dual/tri boot, but from my view patchback and 'normal' dual boot are both enabled. can somebody explain it for me?

[xman954]

tri boot was used to boot a habibi signed disk with no other hacks to the kernal (just the public Key) if booted using eject with the disk allready in the drive (it closes the DVD tray) it's boots, otherwise boots
the alt dash

patchback is used to put back the orignal MS public Key so it will only run MS signed xbe's (kernal is unmoded at this point)

they have been used for XBL stuff in the past

CODE

;;; tray boot enable (dual boot)
%define TRAY_BOOT
;;; tri-boot enable < dual is default, with tray_boot enabled
;%define TRI_BOOT
;;; close the tray when NOT tri-booting (faster booting then tri-boot)

;;;
%define PB_OPEN_PATH   '\Device\Harddisk0\Partition2\xb0xdash.xbe'
;;; use this to patch back the MS key then boot PB_OPEN_PATH
%define PATCH_BACK_MS_KEY

it looks like  patchback and opendash are enabled at the same time? or am i wrong here?

[xman954]

@tp 21
the order that the options are tested
1 TRAY_BOOT
if tray is open
2 TRI_BOOT
3 CLOSE_TRAY_ALLWAYS
4 PATCH_BACK_MS_KEY (if defined boots PB_OPEN_PATH )
5 OPEN_DASH_WITH_NKP
boot OPEN_PATH

so as you see it will boot the ms xboxdash (C:\xb0xdash.xbe)
sorry for the confusion

xman

been trying to reach you regarding getting that program that will compare differences for 64mb/128mb rams boxes.

get back to me when you can.

thanx

[xman954]

Check sig
burn default.xbe to disk and cold boot with and without ram upgrade
(using the same bios that supports 128MB and same xbox version) output is E:\Kernal.bin
this is a good place to start but may not yield what is needed....but it needs to be done.
Winhex does good file compare and IDA pro is usefull to dissemble

[A Murder of Crows]

got it.

in order to get the same bios on both, i'll be using my x3.  I've got NO CLUE if the 3924 bios is 128mb compatbile, beyond what i saw with my own eyes....

stepmania v12 would start up on my box, mod chip enabled, and state that it saw 128mb of ram.  it would then crash.

running the same program with the mod chip disabled and krayzie's Ndure 1.1 running, it would see 64mb of ram, and then would work fine.

both were on the 128mb ram system.

if this is a good enough start, i'll get that output for you asap.

I then ran ''make_nkp11_with_listing.bat'' and copyd the default.xbe to C:\bios\bios.xbe overwriting the older xbe that was still in there. After a reboot I got the ''21'' error. My question is now? Is my bios.xbe not singed correctly? If so how do I sign it correctly? Is my config file wrong?

Thanks! I checked the dashboard (I still have XboxHDM on my PC so I can see what is where) and the dashboard is in the right location. That is no problem. I also fixed the dual boot thing. I guess I should have seen that error myself

I dont know if the fan did speed up, I would say it does but I cant really hear it clearly. Sorry for that.

The problem might be that I already have a runtime config file in E:\NKP11\NKP11_config.bin, the runtime file got made from config_runtime.inc , right? I couldn't really find any details about this in the configuration but my config_runtime.inc links to a non-existing path which would explain the error 21 I got. I only configured config.inc to my liking.

Where do I find the updated rtc.asm btw?

Time to get a few screwdrivers ready, It seems that I have some fixing to do.

[xman954]

you should have a rescue dash (evox) in the real C then it would have booted "C:\rescuedash\default.xbe"
but it still should boot a DVD when there is no dash to boot
the runtime config is not needed, used to change options from the way it was originally compiled
check sig for rtc.asm, the config you posted has flicker filter settings so it must be the WIP version

That is true. I fixed the default dash, it boots XBMC now just fine However it still doesnt boot UnleashX when I turn it on with tray boot enable.

I dont think xboxhdm or any other distro has this fixed.. if you can please update the xboxhdm distro.. cause its main function is to create harddrive.
