Hi,
I wan't too put in a bigger hdd into my xbox, I have looked at several tutorials, they all say copy atleast your C drive via ftp too the xboxhdm folder, my problem with this is that they all fail too mention about the virtual C thing!
You see if I access my Xbox via ftp it shows the virtual C data, my question is wouldn't this be the wrong files too put in the iso, wouldn't you want the real C files, or am I wrong about this?
This brings me too the question, can I unmount C in AID and then ftp in to get the real C: files then remount in AID too keep the old driver intact?
I would just go by the game exploit to get too the softmod menu but I do not have one of those games at the moment.

So what would be the easiest way for me??

Thanks

Hey if you have a V1.0-1.5 Xbox then just use chimp. It is by far the easiest way to upgrade your hard drive. Here is a tut
Quote:
Aid Manual
Hard Drive Cloning using Chimp

Hardware Needed:

- Y Power splitter (or use an external power source for the second HD, like another PC or external disk box etc.)
- Torx 10, 15, 20 Screwdrivers to open Xbox and replace the HD

Software Needed:

- Chimp (installed as an app)

Steps:

1. Open the box with the Torx 20 Screwdriver.

2. Use the Y splitter so both Hard Drives would have power when Xbox is on.

3. Loosen the DVD's IDE, but must still be bootable (it minimize the remove chance of IDE damaging as it is really not designed for hotplugging).

4. Boot Xbox.

5. Launch chimp.

6. Swap the IDE cable from DVD to the new HD.

7. Follow the menu (the first item must be run before others).

Xbox 1.6 problems?

If you have a 1.6 box and you can't see the Linux prog (graphics). In that case, you need to telnet into it, the menu will be same.
