Hypothetical - X2 5035. Any Way To Split Into 2 Halfs?
« on: June 02, 2011, 11:39:00 AM »

Just as the title states, I am wondering, theoretically,  if there is a way to split the X2 5035 bios into 2 equal parts?

No. The X2.5035 readme addresses this explicitly.

If you specifically want to run X2.5035 on an Xbox with a 256kB flash, then you could boot iND-BIOS.5003, and have that automatically run PBL as its first dash to chainload X2.5035.

I am aware that it isn't possible simply to chop off part of the bios and try to use it on a 256k TSOP.  biggrin.gif

I guess what I am asking is, if there is a program that I could use to cut the bios into to equal halves. I will be using both halves, together as a whole, later in an experiment.

That is what I was looking for. Thanks L.
EDIT: I didn't know there was a command in linux to do this. laugh.gif
