thank you for this tutorial PIRRUP but i have a couple of problems....
i followed the tutorial up to step 11 (menu for the LINUX cd) i type in option 1 and it loaded the VGA console (i think) and it froze at "Floppy Disk Type 1.44mm"

You need the eeprom of the box you are putting the drive into. "xbox" is the ftp password, not the locking password. The eeprom is what xboxhdm uses to lock (or unlock) the the drive.

Cancel everything i said I figured it out.
I unlocked it by unhooking the power cable to the xbox dvd drive then when xbox boots up it says error 12 which means no dvd player etc but at this point on it's unlocked! woo hoo!!!

I ran the linux program and my xbdash is back and i can re-softmod it again.

Great tutorial thanks everyone!

Post subject: error 16 even after succesfully formatting with xboxhdm
Reply with quote
 
Ok i followed the tutorial and it seemed
to work.... downloaded the dashboard etc. and made an iso...
The process went smooth.
It restored the C: and E: drive, but not the F:, it did not
asked me to do so, could that be it?
The strange thing is that when I shut down the PC and put the HDD
back in the xbox, the error 16 appeared again.
Please help. Don't have the eeprom for this one.

Tried the swap with two xboxes to eliminate
error 16, but that did not work and my other box just froze
in the slayer prog. and could
not relock the hdd again. Rebooted and got a error 5.
SOB Crying or Very sad thank god I have a backup of that one and the eeprom.
How do I relock it?

Also: Since I have gone through the process of formatting the drives etc. have i then lost my eeprom?

Hey...I'm a complete noob to things like this and I had a problem.

Everything works except it says undefined mode number? Also, it says it's not connected when it is?

Thanks!
