He guys, I bought a modded XBox Version 1.1 with smartxx 2.0 mod chip last year.  Today I made a backup of the bios with the Slayer-CD and edited it with EVtool_1.0.9 it shows "Kernel 1.00.5838.01" because I 'm intrested in changing the color of the starting 'X' to orange, like I saw at a friends xbox. But it's not editable because it's unsuported by the program. Using google told me that kernel 1.00.5838.01 is normaly for a xbox v1.6. So I'm wondering how my xbox could work with such a bios version?! Everything is fine,  I have a 250 GB Samung HD, using only drive f with about 220-230 GB (I don't now exactly, because I'm not at home in the moment) and every game, every program, every tool is working well... and that since one year. Than I decided to make a test of my own, a very risky test. I took the EVOX M8 Plus 16 (for xbox v1.6) and uploaded it on a rom bank of the mod chip, because I thought maybe it could work(it had the same kernel version). But trying to start it smartxx announced something like "Stop, wrong hardware, you could damage something" and so I stopped and directly deleted the bank so nobody of my friend could make a mistake when I'm not in the room. Trying to use other Bioses like the normal EVOX M8 Plus or X2 4983.06 are working but in XBMC I've a G drive with 0 MB and I can't diasable it  with the advancesettings.xml. Using my "special" bios ther is only the f-drive, no need for an advancesettings.xml because it's autodetected.
I think I've to re-partion my xbox if I want to use only a f drive with these two bioses. So my question is if anyone had the same thing (1.00.5838.01 kernel, xbox v1.1) and if this also works fine.... or is there a very good reason to use EVOX M8 Plus or X2 4983.06 and having much work, backuping all files, re-partion all drives and copy the files back.

Thanks in advange

the bios you have IS evox m8, its based on the 1.6 bios so it shows that kernel number, but its been edited to work on 1.0-1.5 xboxes
