im having some werid problems installing a larger hdd into my softmodded xbox and was wondering if anyone could help me out. i used flashfxp ftp my dashboard which is currently running evoX, everything went smoothly when i copied my C:, E:, and eeprom into xboxhdm folder, now the problem came when i made the iso. after making the iso i noticed that the size of the linux iso was only 68.XXX megs this isnt the first xbox ive modded so i know that usually when done correctly the linux iso should be arround 4XX.XX megs, so i burned it anyways thinking maby thats just the way it is. when making the new hdd everything went smooth on that as well until it came to locking the hdd, when i type in YES for are you sure you want to continue or wtv it is, instantly it says "Aborting" and it doesnt allow me to lock my hdd. so i was wondering is anyone else came upon this problem, and if so if they found a solution for it please let me know, ive tried many different things but nothing has worked (for some reason i believe that the problem is the linux iso i created is only 68.XXX instead od 4XX.XXX megs)

the amount of space i dont know it depends on what you have of course lol .... as for the point where your locking it and it says aborint did you get hd frozen status???? if so then go to your bios and turn off auto detect on primary master hd and hdm will pick it up ... jut relock it once you turned off the primary master hd _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition

once you make your disc you want to make the new hd for xbox right? so then why would you put your oem hd? _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition

when I was soft modding my xbox and trying to lock the hard drive and type lockhd -a and then typed YES is would say aborting also. So all I did was type Y instead of YES and it locked the hd.
