    I have this issue with my softmod. I've done quite a bit of searching and can't find the answer. Can I make the linux iso with my C and E drives on a dvd? Reason for the question is that all tutorials so far have stated cd only. They do say that you can leave the C and E drive folders empty and then be prompted to insert a disc with the files. I was never prompted to do so and the new hd didn't work. The other thing is this. I am using an OLD pc that has both cd and dvd drives. The pc has the dvd drive set as secondary master. I cannot set the bios to boot this drive before the hd sooo...will it work? Is there a way to create a cd with xboxhdm on it and then direct the program to use the files on my dvd drive?

    I think I will try to build it as a clean version and then redo the softmod. Hopefully it will work.

    yah i think that should fix your problem and your answer about the drives you can take out the dvd drive on your comp and then put that one above your cd drive and put it in secondary master and your cd drives below it oh and if u build it as a clean version u will lose ur game save be warned get ur drive unlocked and if you have a second hard drive that u dont want or dont use clone it to that then open up explorer360 and copy partition 5 or whatever one has the udata and tdata folders in it so when you softmod again you can ftp udata and tdata over
