badly needed help concerning flashing, keyboard, FTP, and ..
Posted: Sat Apr 15, 2006 3:36 am
well, my experience installing Gentoox is so far....bad. i reluctantly installed the pro v2.0 today and then again flashed my xecuter 3 on the ON ON ON ON OFF (5th position is labled SAB) position when i already had an evoX bios originally on and running on the ON ON ON ON ON (5th position is labled SAB). That was stupid, cause i couldv'e just just did the Ftp installation that i did do recently, but didnt know that that way was indeed correct or somethin. I tried booting up under different combination of banks, but no luck! please tel me i can get my evoX back?!
----i installed under F: drive if that helps before moving on------
1) anyways, once i flahsed it, i can not get back to my original EvoX bios and avalaunch dashboard. How do i do that?
2) I installed Pro fully, and i get to login, but i can't login cuase i don't have the virtual keyboard, so i figure the installition went badly wrong and some filles missing. so i d/l the resctoox and when im uninstalling it asks for me to press Control-C. well, i dont know how to do that if i can't type! currently, i am d/l the home edition and seeing if i can just go over the bad files with this one so i can finaly ftp in and get all that crap out
3) i can't ftp to my xbox! im on the blue screen and i cant connect. any ideas? WEll, i ftp anyoomously, but it brings me up to only a bunch of useless folders that i dont know what to do with?
4) i know for sure that my keyboard installation through the fourth port and twisting wires was done correctly cause i played a game via disc and fourth port and it worked fine. i tried it on a dell and ibm keyboard. the lights on the keyboard just flash green every sec.
----keep in mind i did search on this forum and the tutorials and i've had a modded xbox for over 2 years now, so i do have some knowledge-----
thanks to all!
UPDATE---------------UPDATE-----------------------UPDATE------------------
i used putty and SSH to connect to my box and log in from there and use restoox correctly. i then unflased my xecuter 3 and put on evoX again. and now i can see my avalaunch dashboard once again!! currently, i am installing the home edition, i hope this works out!
