except used a different bios and different XDK version:
Here is what i did:
-flashed Yoshihiro debug bios 256k Kernel 2005
-followed the step "Installing XDK files to your XBox" on the guide and am 210% sure that all the files are in the correct place like the table indicated. Look at the picture (my C on ftp) I also did place the files/folders specified on E to (not pictured)
The only thing that is odd is that i have a E/DEVKIT & an E/DEVKITa folder. Im sure i made the E/DEVKITa long time ago by mistake but it wont delete on FTP or any xbox app like XBMC or DVD2Xbox etc... Regardless both folders are the same besides the name and have all the right files.
I have the dashboard.xbx and xbdm.dll on the root of E also like it says.
What the hell is up? I know this works on other xbox's using this method. I think the dashboard.xbx or xbdm.dll is not working properly or something! My reasoning is that the bios or one of those two files is not compatable with my hard drive!
Help? Ill post this in the DEV forums too, but now-a-days no-one goes there.
So I tried flashing the Connexant-256k-Debug-Gueux-Beta-2 bios and it works, just boots to error 21 also
Then I flashed Yoshhihiro-256k-Debug-Multi-2004 bios and it works and does not boot to error 21, it launches to the XDK launcher. But there is no video. I can tell it works because i typed in 192.168.1.102 in the Xbox neighboorhood and it connected and i can browse around. It also can reboot on Xbox neighboorhood (i can hear when the xbox resets by the noise the DVD drive makes when the xbox is reset) so the bios works and launches the dash but i get no video, not even the flubber on bootup! Otherwise it would be 100% working if the video worked! But the other 2 debug bioses yield error 21 with video!
Xbox is a 1.0 w/ Connexant video encoder chip, using 750GB @32k clusters using .67 and a saved partiton table with 128 Mb's of ram. Using XDK v. 5933 (maybe its a hardware/bios issue?)
I do have the linux OS installed on E if that might be conflicting with the XDK install?

I also did install the 5849 instead of 5933, but still yields either no video or error 21.
And as far as flashing an offical bios that came in the SDK i got these files:
xboxrom_dvt4.bin in folder 3944
xboxrom_dvt6.bin
xboxrom_dvt4.bin in folder 4039
xboxrom_dvt6.bin
xboxrom_dvt4.bin in folder 5455
xboxrom_dvt6.bin

the xbox goes on live once in a while and still uses the stock dash.So i think im pretty much in trouble.
Yoshihiro_K2005_Debug_All_version BIOS states that it does not work with XBpartitoner....so im pretty screwed on that one.
but the older Yoshhihiro-256k-Debug-Multi-2004 bios does not say that its incompatible with the XBpartitoner and brings me no video....
So i think its just compatibility issues with my hard drive. By any chance is there a way to contact the bios developers / teams by website? Slim chance but i thought i would ask.

Have you tried the Tatx BFM debug bios as I proposed? What happens with that bios?
If you would be able to locate one of the debug bios developpers, that would be great.
I am still searching a debug bios with vga support. The nkpatcher patches the bios for vga support. I don't know if there exist similar debug biosses for 1.0 - 1.5 xboxes.
regards.
Tried the TATX bios....error 21
Btw there is a TATX_Debug_VGA_BFM, & TATX_Debug_Dual_VGA bios on xbins... The nfo on one of them reads the VGA is still in "beta" so it may or may not work for you. But as for me I have tried evrey possible known thing.
I even tried using the X3 bios' built in debug mode, still no luck. It's supposed to boot the XDK launcher. But I think zero debug bios's support the hardware configuration I have. I am 200% positive that the Xbe's are in the right location too!
