Native F installation to be removed but format f NOK

Post by GoldFF »

Hi,

Been a while I did some rearrangements with the PBL font softmodded xbox.
I would like to remove the native 70GB F Gentoo reiser installation so...

Format f: .... but no luck .... Evox gives me back the feedback that the format is done but no change ... :?

Can a format be done with one of the gentoox tools ? I would like to find a solution without having to open the xbox ...

Kind regards,

GoldFF

You need to read the manual.. specifically the UNINSTALL.txt file included with the download.

Yep...

"d) If you did a native install, you will have to format your F: back to FatX."

Evox format does not work... Ever heard that ? Any clue ... related to the font PBL setup ? Any idea's ... would a reinstall bring my disk in a state where Evox could reformat it ?

Kind regards,

I need more than "does not work".

You could try booting resctoox and running hdtool to prepare the partition.

Fixed.

Old PBL ... upgraded to 1.3.5i and a recent xboxrom.bin and everything worked.

Kind regards,
