Title: Feature Request: Live Blocking With Evtool/m8plus

The source code is already provided in metoo-m8plus-v1.4.1. NghtShd is free to use it if he wants.

The bios images in metoo-m8plus-v1.4.1 should be also chip-flashable (for v1.6/v1.6b), but they're completely untested in that scenario (so if anyone is going to try them out, make sure you are able to recover in case it doesn't boot, though I find that hard to believe.)

The bios images in metoo-m8pack-v1.4 and prior are only BFM.


And so I went and downloaded metoo 1.4.1... And indeed, enclosed were two versions of m8plus_16 (One with an eject fix, one without), both pre-patched with LBA48, IGR, and X2 style live blocking...

Also included is a hacked version of the latest (1.0.9) evtool that ignores bios hashes and can be used to modify those included BIOSes. (yay!)

After seeing this, I tried flashing the BIOSes to my Xenium ICE, and they did indeed work :-D.

I'll throw the source for PBL/metoo 1.4.1 online... NghtShd: could you add live blocking to evtool? (The relevent source files are m8plus_xbl_block_patch1.asm and m8plus_xbl_block_patch2.asm I'd think wink.gif)

Thanks!

Alright dude,

I have the metoo bios on my chip.

Im reluctant to "try" to go on live to test its functionality untill someone confirms they have done the same !!

Im guessing it works right ?

Thanks

Man it would be great if this was added to EVtool.  I have yet to activate a LIVE account, but I fear that if I do I would be banned in a day because of the others who use my xbox.
