Title: Dash 5659(live 2.0) Do Font Hacks Work On It?
Post by: Frop on September 18, 2003, 09:36:00 PM
I have a few questions, I have browsed and searched the boards fairly thouroughly and these questions of mine still need answering.

I am running:
Kernal 4817
Dash 5659 (a 2.0 version..)

I have live 2.0 because one of the tutorials said to run xbox to get it updated to the correct dash, now ofcourse I did that and it updated me to 2.0.

I am using the MA/evox hack (which works great) to obtain FTP access to the box. I am attempting to install the font hack. I have tried twice thus far and both times end up with an error 21. (I am able to restore the files through MA).

Q1: Has anyone achieved font hacking success with dash 5659? This tutorial uses Kernal 4817 so I dont think thats the problem.

Q2: I am not asking where to get the files. I know that. I want to know what font explot to use! There is "Bert_is_Cheating_on_Ernie_-_The_Pheonix_Project" and "ernie_and_bert_reloaded" as well as "bigfonts" or something similar. Which is newest and best?

Q3:Xbox.xtf and Xbox Books.xtf are both in C:/ and C:/fonts. They are different filesizes strangely enough. I have been renaming and replacing both. Is this correct or should I just rename and replace just one set, and which set would that be?

Q4: What will just installing the font hacks give me (if it works)? I want to eventually install phoenix and evox.

Q5: I have a backup image of my box before I started all this. I could use it to restore me to an earlier Dash version if neccisary. (because my box works fine now, just dont have linux) My question is as follow: How safe is the HDD_driver restore? Has anyone ever had problems with it?

That about does it. Thanks for helping me out and posting any answers you have. My IM contacts are in my profile if you think you can really help me out.


EDIT
bah... posted this in the wrong forum, if a mod wants to move it to the dashboard exploits forum thats great. thanks
