Title: Tutorial: Hdd Upgrade For Xbox 1.6 Pal

Caveats:

a) I'm not 100% sure about this but I think the largest drive possible is 137GB. I
 think the MS BIOS won't recognise the geometries on larger disks and
 because this is a softmod we can't override the BIOS until it's too late. I'd be
 happy to be proven wrong on this one though, and because I'm a total n00b
 myself it's a fair bet that I'm wrong.

Both of these are nice, great work.
Using a hacked m8 bios you can use > 137gb hard drives.

You have to run PBL Metoo edition to load the m8 bios which you can modify to use drives bigger than 137gb.

Hi I have a 1.6 PAL version and an orignal copy of 007.

Can I use the Ltools 007 package?

And if the answer is YES.
Why isn't there a difference between the PAL and the NTSC version just like there is by the splinter Cell Package???

Nice turorial.

Nice tutorial, one thing though
Why do I have to do "lockhd -p typethewholepass"
instead of just typing "lockhd"
and it will just grab the pass from the eeprom stored in the eeprom folder?

With the newer m8+ bios, you can use larger than 137 GB, or you can mod the regular M8 bios. If you have a backup copy of the eeprom.bin file in the eeprom folder of xboxhdm, instead of having to type out the command plus the key, you can just type lockhd -a and it will use your eeprom file to generate and lock the hd automatically.

Yes that with the lockhd -p I don't get that. Because why is there an option to do this automatically.
