| News: Exploitable Xbox 360 wanted... |
Rather than risk bricking another 360, I'll put out this plea: If anyone has an Xbox 360 with kernel version 4548 or below and wants to sell it, please contact me using the "Ask a Question" link to the left and we'll see if we can come to an agreement.
Thanks!

| News: Xbox 360 bricked |
I have spent the past day installing an InFeCtuS into my Xbox 360. I finally got it all installed and dumped my 360's NAND contents successfully. I then went to erase my NAND, everything seemed to go fine until the end when it said "Erase failed" -- Uhoh! I tried turning on the 360, sure enough black screen then 3 red LEDs. After searching around Google for a minute, I found a way of recovering a bad flash using the InFeCtuS' 3.3v line from USB. I recovered the flash and booted and all was well. Perhaps this is where I should have stopped. I undid the bad-flash wiring and I tried erasing and reprogramming again, this time the erase didn't complain and the programming went ahead fine. I tried booting and got a blank screen. "Not to worry," I thought, "I've seen this before and know how to fix it!". I resoldered the bad-flash wiring and tried flashing, the 360 wouldn't even power on now! 3 more flash attempts later and I'm getting nowhere. I tried flashing then downloading the NAND contents and diff'ing it with my original download. The downloads differed, which lead me to believe that the programmer is now malfunctioning because it is changing the flash as it uploads. I carefully took the motherboard back out, all the wires were still correctly attached. I carried on removing the motherboard and about 4 wires got caught and pulled off from the motherboard and took the VIAs with them. This means that I can no longer solder the InFeCtuS onto the motherboard! Until someone posts some alternative solder points, my 360 is very much bricked and hopes of getting a Gentoox360 are incredibly low.

*Update*
I found some alternative soldering points, but they're on the TSOP legs themselves, which makes them impossible to solder to. I guess I'll be buying myself a new Xbox 360 next month!

| News: Gearing up... |
|
With news of the latest Xbox 360 timing attack, I've decided to gear up with the required tools to perform the hack. I've ordered an Infectus and a TOP2004 PIC programmer. Hopefully once the instructions are released for the hack, I'll be good to go to perform a downgrade!

| Back to Apache |
|
The SlXHTTPd test went well, no problems arose. I'm not back to using Apache just because it is "the standard". I will continue to use SlXHTTPd for magic.

| News: Yet more SlXHTTPd news! |
|
Well, I've spent the last few weeks coding away at SlXHTTPd and this is what I have to show for it. I'm no longer running Apache! This website (and all of my others) are being served by SlXHTTPd! Yes, I realise this is a big risk, but it's a means to finding out how stable/ secure it is.

About Gentoox...
Gentoox Linux is an adaptation of the popular source based Linux distribution called Gentoo. It retains all the features of the original (portage, sysvinit etc...) but has a patch system created from the ground up, by myself, which is specifically designed for Gentoox. "Magic" (as I have labelled it) allows users to install new software, upgrade their kernel and fix bugs. To learn more about magic, run "magic usage" once you have installed Gentoox.
Gentoox runs along side games - you get 3 choices during installation: E, F and Native. Both E and F create a loopback filesystem meaning that none of your drives are formatted during installation (except for cache partitions). If you choose "Native", then your F: partition is formatted to ReiserFS (making it inaccessible to Xbox applications).
Gentoox can be loaded via a .xbe file, or from a Cromwell based BIOS (which can be flashed to your modchip during installation). When using E or F installations, you are totally risk free - if you dont like Gentoox, simply delete all the files it installs (about 7 in total) and its gone.
There are three versions of Gentoox: Pro Edition, Home Edition and Media Center Edition. All three are 100% free and opensource, the difference between Home and Pro is that the Home Edition has many software packages preinstalled and preconfigured for instant usablity straight out of the box where as Pro doesn't even have a graphical user interface let alone any "useful" applications. Pro is a bare minimum installation for booting the system, the entire customisation of the OS is left in the user's hands with Pro. Media Center edition is more of a "Plugin" than a separate distribution. It allows you to have a Media Center along with Gentoox Home or Pro.
