I have made the ISO by putting the ms-c files into the C folder in the xbhdm/linux folder.and then running iso maker. Burnt the ISO to a cd using ISO Recorder. Stuck it in the PC I was going to use (OLD like Pentium I or II) had the xbox opened, pc hd set to prim master, cdrom set to secondary master. Load up pc pause load up xbox switch cables and hit spacebar and continue. Goes to boot from cd and says Boot fro ATAPI: Failure insert system disk and hit enter to continue. Now does this mean that the CD is bad or that the PC is incompatible?

yep you transferd ms-c directly to your C folder on xhdm1.9 when insted ms-c should be extracted then tranfer its files to the C not the entire folder. try that im sure you get it from here _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition

Now when I hotswao it loads to where you select 1 for vga or 2 for text. VGa I get a undefined mode number error and 2 it looks like its working says uncompressing Linux REady then like OK boot to normal or something close. Then it reboots the PC and it detects the HD and says Primary master hard disk fail. Ideas? Suggestion? Is it just not unlocked. Because for some reason im getting error 12 on my xbox.

Also when I put the disc I get this little text before it boots.
Boot from ATAPI CD- ROM :
1. No emulation System Type- (00)
ISOLINUX 2. 05 2003-07-16 isolinux: Loading spec packet failed, trying to wing it
...
isolinux: Found something at drive = 9F
It then loads it like normal. If that makes any difference

Also,
When I choose option four in xbox hd maker when it detects my xbox hd it says illegal partition or something of the sort.
I guess I am screwed. I might try to run xbox hd maker from a pretty good HP Pavillion (sp?) but is a modchip a valid option? If so what is the cheapest modchip i can use?

ok when you got this undefined mode number tha maens that you just typed 1 from the key pad the number side .. type 1 from the keyboard side with the letters. the error 12 is normal and you are hotswaping from xbox then to ide right? it should load instant ( the linux) if it does not the hd is locked.

this is normal too
so the first time you had it its just that you typed 1 from the wrong side . so for example lets say you press 1 again adn it gives you undifed number then press the other 1 _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition

No I typed 1 in from the letter side of the keyboard. I think I am hot swapping right but anytime I use an option like 1 vga console or 2 for text console. on 1 i get undefined mode error then hit spacebar and it reboots pc on two its goes through stuff it says uncompressing linux then ready it then flashed some quick message like ok booting to kernel or something then reboots pc

go to a friends pc , and umm so you put the disc on the pc . then you power it on and hit pause/breakthen you power on xbox and swap it to pc then you hit pause/breakand linux should load that instant . you are doing it like that right? 2) try the other button 1 see what happens. and fianly how did you burn xboxhdm1.9
if none of these work try going to a friends pc or get ready for a chip _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition
