Hey again everybody!
I left the modding scene for a while, but now I'm back! I took out my stock HDD from my Xbox and put in a 20GB Maxtor one. Yes, I understand that it is very small, but I just wan't to be able to hold two or three games on it.
So, I installed the new HDD, and everything works, but now I wan't all the space to go to the E directory. This is what I have now:
So I wan't all of the space on F to go to E, how can I do this? I have XBPartitioner and all of the aps that come with AID, so can somebody help me out?
Thanks you,

yeah a 40 gig would work. This way it easier for you and a 20 gig harddrive usually has about 15 gigs to 17 gigs that are accually on it. Moving around the space is really not an option. Its just the way the xbox works _________________

Thats good to hear
Thanks for your help
But I just want to know, why would a bigger HDD make a difference? Its confusing to me. On a computer, I would be able to make a partitionas big or small as I want.
Oh ya, and thanks so much. I love Xbox-HQ because of the fast replies and great members. Thanks so much. _________________ XecuTer Rox My Box!

the Xbox uses a FATX for a file system, and changing the preset partitions could result in harddrive corruption, or just no longer function, a computer is some what differnt but almost the same there is a minimum partition size for the OS to run on then theres the Fileswaping and cache you have to take into account where you have to run those on the same os partition or another.
There are 3 differnt file systems that a computers use, well soon to be 4 with windows vista which is an updated and improved NTFS. The three are FAT, FAT32 and NTFS. _________________

Thanks so much for your help. I think I'm going to wait and get a 250 GB Seagate harddrive from TigerDirect.ca when it goes down in price, and put that into my computer, and put my 40 GB into my Xbox So for now, I will copy my Halo 2 to the F drive, and run it from there. I can have a dashboard boot from F, right?
Thanks guys. _________________ XecuTer Rox My Box!
