Why did you load that unless you wanted to run Linux on your XBOX. Now you have to make a Linux boot CDRW and load that up and when it ask you for a bios...put in X-ecuter 2's 4977 bios so you can play your backups and stuff.

Download the image and burn it to CDRW. Goto the Downloads section of my site and download the file and read the instructions.

Try a different ISO. goto www.ozchips.com (they made the boot disc) or something like that and try again.

I have had the same problem. I first tried to install the Linux based crap, then realized I did the wrong thing. If anyone has any advise on how to change back to get Evolution-X running, please comment on this. Thanks.

I actually have an Xecutor 2.2 Pro and I have had a lot of trouble flashing the bios. I get a verification error everytime I flash it using my PC. And when I try to boot it doesn't look any different then the normal boot or doesn't boot at all. The only bios I have successfully booted was the Cromwell Linux Bios 1.8 and that is worthless. I tried to load the Evolution X 2.3 1 meg bios with no luck. I tried the Xecutor 2 4975 bios and it wouldn't boot. I even tried using using a short parallel cable from a zip drive (long cables supposedly cause verification errors). Anyways I just want to be able to load the evox dashboard. Please help.

Your problem is, you are using the wrong parallel port settings. Second, you are using old bios. Use the X-ecuter 2 4977 or 4976.02. Make sure your evolution X dashboard is named evoxdash.xbe for the XBOX to boot properly.

So what parallel port settings should I use? There is 3 different options. I am working on getting 4977 as well.
Thanks

Hi, I have the same problem as nXtOfKiN
I am desparate on getting a new bios installed and maybe have better luck with that one. So nXtOfKiN how did you get that other bios installed? I also have the "FlashBIOS(Cromwell)" that came preflashed with my X-Ecuter 2.2 LITE[+] mod chip. I can get it to reconize the bios but then is says "Unknown flash! Halting"
Quote, nXtOfKiN:
"OK, Now I've gotten the new Bios intalled but now whatever cd or game or anything I put in the drive, it says that it is loading linuxboot.cfg but it can never find it. Can somebody tell me where I can find this?"
How did you do it please
What bios did you use? and did you ever get to install a new bios that can run "Evox dashboard"
Thanks

Make sure your write protect is off when trying to flash the chip.

I found out the answer to error "Unknown Flash! Halting"
First boot up you xbox so it goes to the "FlashBIOS (Cromwell)" and after it says to put in a bios CD, disconnect your mod chips external switch (unplug it). After you have done that put in your CD that has your bios.bin and dummy files. Once when you do that it should install your new bios!

Or simply turn off the write protection switch ;)

For some reason when I turn off my write protection switch it doesn't change anything
so if anyone else has this problem just unplug the external switch and it should work

OK... here's the problem. I have the x-ecuter 2.2 lite +, installed it fine, got to the "please insert bios update disk now". so i wanted to put on evox2.6 . OK, here's where I messed up. the evox2.6 is a 256K file, and I loaded it directly on. I know the 2.2 Lite is a 1 MB bios chip, correct? So the bios loaded anyways, and now when I turn my Xbox on it turns off twice, and flashes green/red. Is it possible to get past this or go back? I think I'm screwed unless I buy the programmer... but correct me if I'm wrong.

Yep, pretty much screwed. The chip only flashed the first 256k of the 1MB. If you only flashed a 512kb file, you would still be ok. Anyways, get yourself a programmer ($15US at most sites) and live and learn!

If you can't play your backups or can't see the "X-ecuter 2" logo on the bottom as opposed to the "Microsoft" logo, then you didnt mod properly. Check your connections or have a professional do it.

Its possible your XBOX DVDROM drive is dead or dying. Thus, you can't boot the evox discs and other stuff.

How do I get around this then? Buy a new Drive? If so, where do I find one?

Get a drive from a friend with an XBOX or buy one on ebay.

This is my first try at modding my xbox. I have a xecuter 2.2 Lite+ modchip, and a v1.0 xbox. I think I installed the chip correctly, because when the chip was on it went to the FlashBIOS screen and asked me to insert BIOS update CD.
I added the Evox D.6 BIOS which also seemed to work fine. But I thought when the chip is on it should say xecuter 2 when the dash boots up. Mine says Microsoft if the chip is on or off.
I have tried running the Evox boot disc, but this also does not work.
Any suggestions? Do I need to buy a flash programmer and change the BIOS on my chip?
