Dual Dashboard with Dual Bios

Recommended Posts

Hello

So I have a Chip called a jafar, Its an upgraded Aladdin XT with Xblast. 1 Bank of 512, 1 256 and the last 256 is reserved for the Xblast which always boots first.

My Question is how do I get Dual Dashboards with this? I have UnleashedX as I've always liked it but want to give XBMC a try

 

Ideally I'm looking to have say Unleashed X boot with the 512mb X2 5035.137 bios and XBMC Boot with the evox.m8plus bios or visa versa

After extensive searching online I am none the wiser, Could someone point me in the right direction to get started?

Your on the right track

For simplicity use the 256kb with EvoxM8 to boot to Unleashed X

The have the X2-5053.67 in the 512kb bank, you then edit the config file on E drive to load XBMC.

FTP this to E drive root directory after editing it

x2config.ini

If you open it with Notepad on your PC and change the dash1name to look for XBMC 1st

If you have XBMC on F drive the use this,  dash1Name = f:xbmc/default.xbe

; 255 characters max here, format is <drive>:<path_to_xbe>.xbe, e.g. "f:dashes\avalaunch.xbe"
; keep all paths lowercase just in case you have any issues with dashboards booting
dash1Name = f:evoxdash.xbe
dash2Name = e:evoxdash.xbe
dash3Name = c:evoxdash.xbe
dash4Name = c:xbmc.xbe
dash5Name = c:xboxdash.xbe

Right, there is another Evox in the E/Dash/EvolutionX file path that is the Dash3name part

So, the Evoxdash on the roor of C is just a dummy?

 

Now I understand these are not the Dash's I talked about but I'll get it working right with these, i have XBMX4Gamers I can rip

If you download the prebuilt XBMC4Gamers from the rocky5 github

Then extract and FTP to E: (should look like E:xbmc4gamers) then edit the dash1 to "dash1Name = e:xbmc4gamers/default.xbe" it will then load xbmc4gamers as the default dash.

Hmm, Bit more confused lol. So my Xbox Boots to unleashedX but according to this it should boot to Evox?

evoxdash.xbe on the C drive root directory is most of the time a shortcut to the location of the dash the installer disk/app set as default.

This is currently unchanged

C:\evoxdash.xbe (2.91MBs) is actually UnleashX's XBE file renamed to evoxdash.xbe.

Evox +3935's XBE file is 752KBs in size while UnleashX 0.39.0528A Build 584 is 2.91MBs.
