Well, I have soft modded and hardware modded around 6 xboxes now and each one I hit a different brick wall, so I hope the title caught your eye. I softmodded a box using Mechassualt, running campaign, and then linux (SID3). The box worked great. I installed the UnleashX and it all ran. The network jack on this xbox is fried, so I ran Config Magic (loaded from AID2.11) and wrote down the unique hdd key, and current hdd lock code. I also backed up the eeprom. I then unlocked the hdd and shutdown. I then used xboxhdm to clone the drive to an 80 GB drive. I then used xbrowser and copied the eeprom files to a floppy and locked the drive again. Now neither drive works (and of course they are locked since it is a soft mod). I'm using the eeprom.bin file with the pasword that config magic gave me. I can succesfully lock/unlock the hard drive (at least according to the cdrom boot disk I made from xboxhdm stuff). But none of the drives work now. What am I missing?
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I finally got it working. Not sure how. Just did a fresh install of xbox c drive from Slayer and then locked it. I have one other question and will post on the tail end of this question first. Since I don't have a working network jack on the xbox, I need to install some newer versions of some applications. How can I create an xbox ISO with these applications and then just copy the files over? I've tried c-box and creating an ISO, but it expects an default.xbe. These are just files and directories. Any suggestions?
Thanks again all!

I've got autoinstaller and it is great. It's just that dvd2xbox is an older version (like 0.6.7) and they have 0.7.2 I think out. I'd like to load the newer than the old one on autoinstaller.
