Nice so after I re-flash the BIOS using very recent Hexen (loaded from e:) which I believe has the iND 5004 it by default put that ind-bios.cfg in parition0 (c:)? After that I can tweak the ind-bios.cfg file to source the dashboard from E:\

I happened to read on another thread a post from KaosEngineer I see for iND 5004.67, I just need to use XBPartitioner to make partition6 (F:) take up the remaining space after all standard xbox partitions. However as I've stated if I format F: drive after flashing the BIOS it may affect the booting to default dashboard (UnleashX) on F: therefore is there anyway to move/configure them to partition1 (E:) beforehand.

Thanks for confirming the 256k size and offering your suggestions to use: ND5004.67.bin X2-5035-67.bin It looks like I should go for the x.67 even if I only plan to use partition6 (F:). When doing these changes I don't want to relying on the DVD drive as I just can't get it to boot those Utility CDs (ie Hexen) and I've tried lots of media and burning speeds. Therefore I'm happy to use the evolutionX menu to select the BIOS I want to flash. I'm guessing for some setups (possibly mine) that the dashboard is installed on Partition6 (F:) so if I format that drive I'll lose my default dashboard (ie Unleashx). Therefore I thought I'll need to edit a config file or reinstall my default dashboard on Partition1 (E:) to avoid any issues. If such a configuration file exist for what default dashboard it loads where does that exist?

I"m seeking advice on upgrading the Bios on my original Xbox due a larger hard drive installed which also needs a 32k cluster size. Therefore I'm after a better and known BIOS which has LBA48 (+137GB) and only enables partition6 (f:). Xbox info (Known) Console model: v1 (0a) Mod chip: Super Aladdin Live Hard drive WD 500GB (PATA) *NOS DVD: Thomson (yuck!) so little luck making it boot CD/DVDs Kernel Version: 1.0.4981.6 Current Bios: Unknown - possibility custom (Xecuter2 4981) Currently the xbox HD is formatted 16k cluster size and I am experiencing issues in relation to this and want it to be 32k. When I run XBPartitioner to correct this, it displays: Therefore I just need a more recent bios with LBA48 v2+ that also keeps other feature like In Game Reset (IGR) Which is why I'm asking this question to you. From my research I've learnt that for BIOS that enables partition #6 is labelled as x.06 for both partitions #6 and #7 is x.67. I've read that Aladdin (mod chips) will only take 256k (default). Inside the xbox is the Super Aladdin Live and know little about chip size or amount of banks as only I've found was on the knightdiscount website. Since my xbox possible has Xecuter2 4981, thought these would be go choice: Xecuter2 4983 however after looking at: I have been look a the All Retail Bios Information chart on this forum. All I know if I flash the wrong bios I'll have to re-flash it with hardware I just don't have. Thanks in advance!
