Hi
I'm a newbie, I download some bios like this:
evox.m8plus.v16.fc.137.bin
evox.m8.v16.fc.137.bin
I confuse with the FC in the name, if somebody could tell me what is the FC mean.
Thanks alot.

The FC means that the bios will first boot F:\ then C:\ drive looking for the installed dashboards.. Normally evoxdash.xbe or if you are running a older bios evox.xbe.
This means you if you are running this bios on your modchp you can install any dashboard directly to your F:\ drive on a larger hdd and it is hidden from M$ on the c:\ drive.. Its called stealth too.
However, the evox BIOSes on the HeXEn 2018 disc are not set that way. I've not check the TruHeXEn 2019 or 2020 BIOSes.
evox.m8plus.fc.bin's boot order list is configured as follows:
C:\evoxdash.xbe
E:\Dash\UnleashX\unleashx.xbe
E:\Dashboard\default.xbe
137 or not in the BIOS's Name
137 in the BIOS's name means the default LBA48 configuration is set to:
Partition 6 takes up to 137GB / Partition 7 Takes Rest
while without 137 in the name means, the LBA48 configuration is set to:
Partition 6 Takes Rest of the Drive.
The standard distro BIOS naming .67 (partition 6 and 7 / F and G drives) and .06 (only partition 6 / F drive) respectively.
