I made a few perfect backups with nandpro and lpt interface from my Zephyr.
Then I injected only the rawkv and config into XBR 3b for Zephyr, no custom XeLL.
I flashed it with lflash into my nand and it didn't report any bad blocks or problems.
Booting into the dashboard works fine each time and so does XeLL with the eject button.
However when I boot the gentoov2 disc to play with linux, it will always give me E79 after I've turned my console off and on.
Then When I turn it off and on the second time, it'll bring me back to the annoying setup screen.
As far as I know gentoo doesn't mess with the contents of the nand right?
Anyone having similar problems?
It only happens the each first boot after I've been running gentoov2.
EDIT: It seems to happen when I turn my xbox instantly on after turning it off... doing that probably makes the jtag hack unstable.
If I wait for 20 or 30 seconds before turning it on again it'll boot fine.

But you don't ask with respect.

You don't even think to call me Godfather.
Instead, you come into my house on the day my daughter is to be married, and you ask me to do murder for money.

Same here with a Zephyr. if a off/on cycle doesn't fix unplugging for 10 secs or so always works for me.

Well I'm glad, I'm not the only one then.
I found out the two diodes for the jtag hack are very sensitive.
I redid the soldering and put some electric tape around both diodes and made sure nothing is making contact with ground because the first time I stuck the wire too deep in one of those solder holes, causing it to touch the bottom of the metal housing.
Since my nand-backups are perfect and lflash didn't report any bad blocks when verifying after writing I assume the contents of the nand is ok (only injected rawkv.bin and config.bin as stated in the readme).
I don't have to cycle the power-cord between each boot now, however I still have to wait 30seconds or so between powering the console off and on or else I'll get E79 followed by the setup-wizard after that.

thats why i remove the board completely when soldering up, then mask and replace when done. |

Hi
i get the same thing happen to me on my cygnos install with xbr v3. Have xbr 3 on 360 nand and xell (hack.bin) running on second (cygnos). If I turn on 360 and then switch off then on again quickly I get e79 then I power down and the unplug power put back in and then it boots normally although get welcome message wizard.
Any fox for this.

My recently acquired Zephyr did the same, after shutting down gentto, E79. The console did it just like 3 times: after shutting down gentoo (used lflash to get XBR flashed) After switching DVD drives, twice. The console will not give error 79, but it freezes always in the first boot. The console asked me twice for the main configuration, I'm gonna cut the power feed and see if it does that again. Anyone getting a Freeze at first boot? Almost forgot, when I turn on the console using the remote (haven't tried with MCE button), sometimes, the console makes a search for wireless controllers. As I was writing, tried to reboot the console, it gave E79, and when turned back on, asked for the main configuration again, something is wrong. Any help will be appreciated. Edit: Used this diagram for my Zephyr, but soldered to the spot next to ft2p3 instead of DB1F1, a pretty good contributor of my project messed up DB1F1 and FT1U2, but the tracks are ok, is just that 2 spots have some kind of paste which will not allow to solder, but not messed up traces.  |

I used the same diagram and soldered it 3 times now, always the same results.
Everything is clean and not connecting to ground, and even put electric tape on my solder spots and diodes.
It always boots fine but if I run gentoo I'll get E79 the second time I turn on the box (and I didnt use gentoo for flashing, just some webbrowsing), after that it'll boot with the usual setup screen.
Same when I shutdown the console and turn it on too early, I should always wait at least a minute or two before tuning it on or I'll also face the E79 also followed by the setup screen.
Maybe the diodes I ordered are $#!tty, is it possible to use the resistors instead on zephyr?
I've only seen the resistor diagram for xenon.

Used some electric tape directly to 360 board and diodes, seems like it prevents the diodes from touching the mobo and the case to touch the diodes, not a single E79 in 2 days. My wireless controller will not sync even trying to resync it.... Whats the problem?  ? Soldered below the RF board bracket, could that be the problem??? |

I have same problems with my Zephyr.
Must be issue with xbr for zephyr boards.
Or something cause jtag to not hook causing E79.
Maybe jtag wiring wrong for zephyr boards, causing a short.
Something definitly causing memory to reset.

I'm almost sure there was a short, but is discarded now, my only problem remaining is, the controllers will not sync eventually, I'm gonna switch that diode and see what happens Edit: Already switched that diode, I'm gonna run it for some days and see what happens |

I recently did a falcon.
It has one bad block but all 8 images are identical.
So I build the XBR image and used redline's bad block mover to fix it.
Flashed fixed XBR image with lflash and it works fine using the same wiring and diodes.
I can turn it off and on without E79 or other weird errors (the zephyr also gives 3rrod sometimes when turning it on).
I also noticed the falcon will boot almost immediately when turning it on where my zephyr will hang 5 or 6 seconds before it gives the welcome animation.
Within those 5 or 6 seconds I'll here the fans speeding up a few times.

My Zephyr box is pretty buggy.
E79s on most boots, but if I unplug it for 10-20 seconds then plug it back in and turn on then it works. Sometimes I have to go through setup.
When it does work it takes 5-6 seconds to show the bootanim.
Sometimes the RoL stays powered and/or doesn't respond to wireless controller guide presses after shutdown.
Mine is a cb/cd 4580 Zephyr running falcon xbr3a.

i think because of the different reversions of boxes including parts moved or changed,
is causing whatever cap not to discharge(on a normal switch off) because of the path were using for jtaging or something not switching back..
only way to find out is start tracing...

My zephyr is still locking up at first boot, since updated to XeLLous, I don't really know what it could be, but it surely has to do something about the hardware revisions, I guess I'll have to use one of my xenons for now

I've managed to keep mine running and not having to reset video/time settings on boot by unplugging it after I shut down and waiting 20-30 seconds before plugging it back in and turning it on again.

Dont use electrical tape, its crap and will let loose at some time, especially in the xbox because of heat. Use heat shrink tube and Hot glue(the good stuf) You probably had problems with the solderpoint at the ROL (RF) board or the wire coming back to the jtag point |

well i think you are all just heading in my direction... i was getting random e79s and the usual config screen on bootup... then after a long FTP session BOOM! e79... my console has not started up since then... i fixed all the wiring yesterday but nothing... still... at this point i do not know if my nand has been shorted, became corrupt or if my jtag connections are faulty...
