In reading this I got the idea that Virtual eeprom was not needed with Ndure to insure stability. But both Krayize and Kingroach have it as part of their installers.

So does Virtual eeprom add anything to the functioning of Ndure? Do I need it?

UDDEE? SCEEE?

God damn. Why do you guys always need to post this stuff in only one thread scattering it amongst 20-30 different posts! Lol.

RiceCake, your post originally had me thinking you might be on to UDDEE+SCEEE re. Ndure...

That EEE combo's the other reason for the 21 MB filler in kingroach's installer v2.1; although I haven't tried it myself (as the 21 MB DDEEE's all I need) I'm sure it would work.

{: Personally I refer to UDDEE+SCEEE as "Upita" and think anyone that uses it deserves sore thumbs! :}

I've now verified the above using the underground SCEEE files, along with six XIP* files from SlaYer's v2.5 and its patched XBE* as settings_adoc.xip in xboxdashdata.185ead00 (*re. steps i & ii here: http://forums.xbox-s...post&p=2351577).

Just the 21 MB filler needed deleting, but slightly more space was consumed (leaving ~335 KB free in the Ndure 2.1's real-C).

{: It worked perfectly, but took me more than a minute of button-mashing to launch the exploited dash! :}

kingroach, those needed for the minimal/optimal amount of space usage indicated here: http://forums.xbox-s...dpost&p=2893298

(It's easier to understand and/or prove the 'Uber Double Dash' by getting it working in "full" in the virtual-C first.)

Btw, the Ndure 2.1 real-C layout re. UDDEE and UDDAE is...

1. is all of the 35.7MB needed?.. what files can be left out?

2. Where does the DD fonts goes?

So, those of you with UD-eh!, via either of my previous posts or elsewhere, can "go back in time" and do all (SFAIK) dash 4920-specific exploits on boxes with any current kernel version.

I'm personally leaning more to a dual retail hacked dashboard (like a fuckmsed evox or xbmc) which should be possible now with Angerwounds just revealed secret app. This eliminates the need of the retail dashboard and therefore the dependacy of certain versions or update problems.

I heard you will be releasing package with xbmc.. its would be good since no need of retail msdash before going to live but does a retail evox/xbmc play games/apps from hd?.. I never tried funckms'd dashboard so dont know.

I think using a "retail" setup with anythingthing else completly shatteres the advantages to Ndure retail. Sure it's still "non-coldboot" XBL, but you dont have a friends list etc.

The *.du folder issue (error 21 on tray open boot) can be avoided by enabling auto-sign in. Also, without the retail dash setup, switching to a full retail state (with UDDAE backdoor) is not so easily done.

When using a hacked dash for non-coldboot XBL over the M$dash i see the following:

Pro:
No more error 21 due to dashupdates with auto sign in disabled
Future updates cause less hassle (if any)

Con:
No more M$ XBL fuctions such as friends list via menu.
Full retail state switching is harder (requires a backup on E)

But since i'm not assuming any smart moves from M$ that cant be overcome if a few weeks, and most live users have auto sign in enabled anyway, the only way i see this being really usefull for casual users, is if M$ overhauls XBL next month and the dash cant be used via the current open-tray setup (hash checking xboxdash.xbe for example, killing ANY softmod with XBL

).

Not that i oppose the goals BTW, just noting some points here. And i also thought fuckMS only applied to retail XBE's (cant be used on debug XBE's).
