Use a boot disc like slayers or aid 4.02.
If your useing slayers youll need to run the disc then ftp in and install the new xbox main dash.
If your useing aid 4.02.wich wold be better it has the xbox ms main dash on it for install.
You can google both boot discs to find them. "God i kill me"

It can happen that way, yeah. It can also happen by deleting files that shouldn't be deleted, corruption etc. As said, the error is fixed by replacing the dashboard you have. If you have a backup of the C: drive, simply restore that.

if you get error 21 you most likely will not be able to boot the AID disc. Do you still have the gamesave on the HDD that was used to softmod the box orginally

If he's still got the gamesave on his HDD, all he'll need to do is put in Splinter Cell or Mechassault or whichever program he used, fire up the linux save and reinstall the softmod.
