1.6 Xbox formatted, now stuck on boot

[markdj]

Hi, I found a 1.6 Xbox with an Aladdin modchip in dual boot (EvoX purple logo in the top left corner when I long press the power button).

It booted an old version of xbmc, so I decided to use OGXbox Installer 2021 1.5.4 PBL (the latest version) to do a format and install the latest dash.

I went to Format and Setup, then Launched XBPartitioner1.3 (black screen for a while and returned to OGXbox Menu). Then rebooted, and selected "AiO setup a new large HDD", even if the hdd is the stock one, because I followed the readme After the format though, if I reboot the xbox without the dvd inserted it hangs on boot (green Xbox with purple EvoX Logo and "Microsoft" in the bottom center). I tried selecting various default dash but it doesn't work.

I don't know how the hardmod works (I am used to softmodding), but I think that maybe it searches for the dash somewhere else (?). Can someone help me please?

update (hoping that someone will help me eventually lol)

I tried also with TruHeXen 2021 and I was able to run EvolutionX, seems to be the only dashboard that runs. If I install XBMC or XBMC4Gamers and boot it, it says "XBMC Fatal Error special://masterprofile/guisettings.xml, Line 0 Failed to open file".

I think that I have to update the bios which actually is EvoX M8 but maybe I need a modded version of it capable of running multiple dashboard (?). Unfortunately when I run BIOS Checker from OGXbox Installer it black screens and returns to the Installer. I don't know then if I have a 256Kb, 512Kb or 1MB bios chip. What do I have to do? I want to run XBMC4Gamers as a default Dashboard, with the ability to also use M$Dash for the high definition setup.

Try using a different installer disc.  For example, OGXbox Installer 2021 v1.5.4

 

Not sure about a PBL version of the OGXbox Installer 2021 installer disc.   

Is it the same as the one I provided a link to download?
