Yeah bumped into one.
Was watching a youtube video and noticed he had 2 different splinter cell files and I only have one. So my question is, what is the other file and how do I get it?
I tried doing it with what I had but when I load the disc in and select linux I get rrod and an error saying my xbox needs to be serviced

^^ okay, it can b e a bit annoying differentiating but it's this simple!
if you have a retail NTSC-U copy of SS, you'll need the NTSC-U exploit!
TO BE CLEAR, you say "two of the same file"...
is that a reference to TWO SS exploits OR the "linux profiles"
.......
in any cast, th SS exploit has a linux file for it, all you need to do is get the corresponding REGION of save to your game (exploit comes with it's linux profile) _________________ to all my friends... farewell and all the best to future prosperity... and remember, be excellent to each other!

we are!
each site i visit has a wildly varying pbp system, look at this youtube clip in code so you know how to get them properly displayed on these forums!
bbias with possible support...[/code]

^^ i see now!
i has NO fuckin idea why he added a third to his console but get the SPPV sid package and use the relevant region of save to your game! (the exploit file and the linux profile)
i don't know how you're getting two of the same....
ignore that part of the clip but apply it to the mod you want to do!
(it was sid he used but he added a THIRD item to his xbox and that's confusing me also, just ignore it and go with what was explained! the video is a bloody good one but now i'm thinking about the THREE files he copied to his console is PISSING me right off, NEVER seen an mc exploit divided into three parts as displayed in the above clip) _________________ to all my friends... farewell and all the best to future prosperity... and remember, be excellent to each other!

do you have a CD lens cleaner to hand? if so, run it through the xbox for about ten minutes! (check the disk condition also, may need a clean)
let the console sit for a few, get a brew in ya then come back to it and try again!
it's at that stage that if you can't read the required retail disk, then the optical drive will need servicing!
youtube will also help with that, same for the tutorials here!
(my drive servicing is less than orthodox, don't fancy risking your machine though) _________________ to all my friends... farewell and all the best to future prosperity... and remember, be excellent to each other!

I swear this is why I hate technology sometimes. I am doing everything exactly the same and yet errors up the ying yang.
I switched to another xbox, copied the files over, popped the game in and everything loaded.
Went to select Linux, looks like its about to load flashes white and grey then reboots. Also note, the power is cycling through green red orange.
The other xbox on the other hand gave me an error that it needs servicing.
So what am I doing wrong

^^ okay, do you have the ability to create a youtube video?
i'm not so sure about what to advise next unless i can see (with my own eyes) the steps taken, the xbox itself...like the dash info.blah, blah...
..........
can you make a descriptive video and post it back please?
i'm clutching at straws here and this is one of my tech hates, when i don't know if my advice is helpful or counterproductive! (i sense the latter so...)
.....................
please other users, contribute your opinions and help. i'm twisting in the wind here plus i'm NOT an xbox expert, just retain what's worked for me then pass it on as required.... _________________ to all my friends... farewell and all the best to future prosperity... and remember, be excellent to each other!

No I cant but maybe I can do picture shots?
I checked the kernel and dash everything is up to date.
K: 3944.01
D: 5960.01
SID 5.11 Installer USB (even though its from the 5.12)
1 save
0 content items
5751 blocks
When you click the inner part it says
Install Sid 5
5747 blocks
When you click the inner part it says
LINUX_Profile
4 blocks
Now both of them are doing the same thing. Game loads fine, I go to the main menu and start a new game. Select Linux > checkpoint>
Then we have the flash of white, the eject button ring starts cycling through green, yellow, and red continuously and the game reboots to the beginning logo.
Rinse and repeat and you have my results :/

here folow this video. It wil clear up any confusion
If you get reboots that means the game linker file is not connecting proper with the installer file. If al else fils use SID5 then use XBMC Installer to upgrade the mod or else wait for end of May for the Babylon release.
