Formatting

A place to ask all newbie questions and not get flamed, though you will get beaten down if you post a newbieish question outside of these walls.

Formatting

Post by gasranas »

Installed Pro 1.5.
Done magic update, as per instructions, refuses to boot. (kernel panic)

Ok, so I know I need to format the E Drive after backing it up, but would someone be willing to say what you actually need to do ? Boot off rescue disk, then use linux to format ? Or use evox to re-format ?

Step by step instructions would be great, if someone has a spare 5 mins.

Thanks in advance,

Gasranas.

PS. Anyone know the ETA of Pro 2.0. ?

- ftp into the E: on your xbox
- backup all your files on E
- checkout xbox-scene.com for guides on how to format via ftp (or illegal dashes, but seek support there for that method)
- ftp your files back to E:
- reboot and load gentoox
