I have done some searching on the topic, but have not quite seen a concrete answer as of yet. So, here is my situation:
I own a modded/chipped XBOX (Xenium S.P. ICE) that is working great and has worked awesome since I modded it. I just bought a used box and I want to do a softmod on it. The question is, can I put my unmodded box's HDD in my modded box (where I have FTP access and the ability to unlock the drive using the modchip) and get the necessary stuff on it?
I'm still a bit unclear as to what exactly happens with Ndure's installer. What does it do to the HDD? Is it possible to place the same files on it manually using FTP?
I would be doing all of this as an alternative to the hot-swapping method if in fact it is possible. I will be modding my new box first, and then probably doing a friends later.
Thanks in advance!
You can't put your unmodded xbox hard drive in your chipped xbox because the hard drive is locked to the unmodded xbox so that is out of the question.
Ndure's installer works along with xboxhdm and you'll basically have to do a hot swap. It's the easiest and fastest way so I say do that.

Just ftp in delete the contents of you E:\Dash folder, copy the XBMC files into the E:\Dash folder.
Make sure the XBE is named default.xbe and you should be all set.
Glad it all worked out for you.
That'll work, or you can do this just in case you ever want to get back into the UnleashX dash
Go into E:\dash and rename default.xbe to UnleashX.xbe
then follow option 1 in these instructions
