loader problem with 6.0a? help plz...

This has been discussed a bit and i think resolved, though I think the fix fell out of the later builds.
The topic (also listed in this Bugs area from almost a year ago, and many other places) is related to trying to boot a non-native install and the xbox suddenly powering down.
I remember this working for me sometime in the past (like version 4 or 5 maybe?) but now it's not working.
Here's what I'ved tried:
works| start linux from
No | softmod/font exploit
No | x2 5035/evox (no igr) menu
No | x2 5035/unleashed file browser
No | x2 4983/evox (no igr) menu
No | x2 4983/unleashed file browser
No | M8+/unleashed file browser
Yes| cromwell
Yes| gentoox cd
Ok, when I say "No" the behavior after selecting the gentooxx.xbe is the screen flickers, I see a horizonal red line, then no video, then xbox led flashes orange, then power down.
My xbox is a 1.0 version, yes I know Shallax said this was some kinda known problem, but it's worked before and he did say he thought it was fixed later.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! I've typed Avocado in so many times I wanna pull all my hair out and through the xbox out of the window! lol

P.S. I've tried this with home 6.0a via non-native e: install from cd, as well as ftping from my pc.
