trancy, is it possible for you to modify xbrflash so it flashes all nand blocks except the blocks Xell is in so even if you get a bad flash due to bad keyvault or config then you can still boot into Xell and reflash.

keyvault and config have nothing to do with xell. the only way your gonna get a bad flash is if you disregard the info trancy has provided. |

I understand now. Previous bad flashes were due to lflash freezing, because of gentoos usb driver but now that the nand file to be flashed is stored in ram, xbrflash does not freeze during flash so even if you flash a bad KV or Config block for XBR, you can still boot to Xell since the freezing due to usb would cause Xell to not be written to nand at all or only partially written requiring a flash via USB SPI or LPT. |

Why buy one, when you can buy two for twice the price.

trancy, good job cleaning up the code. I figured it was something simple but didn't have time to investigate those numbers. Looks like we only need nandpro now for the initial 50 block xell backup/flash. Then once you can boot Linux, you can do all your future dumps and flashing from there at lightning speed. |

Noob question, when booting Gentoo Livecd v2 on my 360 through Xell (running XBR_1 on a Jasper 256, wanting to update to XBR_3)I get through Xell fine, it boots the Gentoo cd and finally outputs "The root block device is unspecified or not detected. Please specify a device to boot, or "Shell" for a shell...". Not familiar with this app and documentation is sparse, can anyone give me a lending hand so I can move forward? Thank you.
Edit: A few lines above this, as Gentoo boots, I see another error: "Could not find cd to boot, something else needed!" , Gentoo cd in the 360 drive of course.

Seems like a problem with Grub being unable to find or access the boot partition. Bad burn maybe?

2 burns now: 1 on a CD-R medium, 1 on a DVD-R medium. Going to try a DVD+R DL (verbatim). The second burn seemed to make it through more steps during the boot up cycle but still failed as soon as it got to: Loading modules Activating mdev Making tmpfs for /newroot No bootable medium found. Waiting for new devices...\ And then the errors I already described follow. Strange... |

I am working right now on an new version of XBR-Flash New features: - Moving automatically bad blocks for big nands (512/256MB) and small nands (16MB)! - Injecting automatically KV and config to Nand flash No need to prepair xbr.bin under Windows. Only need is the virgin xbr.bin  |

A DVD+R DL would be a waste, by the way the Gentoo ISO is meant to be burned to a CD, you can't just burn it to a DVD and expect it to work. I would try to burn again on a CD. |

Burned 3 cds, was simply trying to eliminate possibilities. No luck, looks like I am going to have to LPT flash. I would like to say thank you though to the people putting time and effort into making this possible. People like you all keep the scene going. |

Awesome work, thanks so much for helping things along with this trancy!
I just tried it on a BB 512 and had it lockup hard while writing XBR3 to the nand.
It made it through dumping the first 64 meg and verifying fine.
I was able to reflash xell to the first 1.5 meg with my LPT (nandpro recognized the flash config and wrote without issue) and am booting gentoo now to try again.
Trying a different USB memory stick.
Pretty darn fast!
