I am wanting to flash my 360 and I found a tutorial but there's this one part that really confuses me and I dont know what to do at first here it is below

"Turn on your PC and Xbox 360 at the same time, and boot your PC from the USB flash drive into DOS. When you reach the DOS command prompt, plug the SATA cable into the Xbox 360 DVD drive, so that the drive is connected to your PC / SATA card. Enter y to accept the iPrep Terms of Use."

It's pretty straight forward.

Turn on your PC and Xbox 360 at the same time. (Turn on your PC and Xbox 360 at the same time).

boot your PC from the USB flash drive into DOS. (the usb flash drive that you have created in iprep with the hacked firmware. unplug all other ide cables and set your comp in bios to boot from the usb flash drive. when you boot the PC it will boot into dos from the newly created flash drive. *see also next step).

When you reach the DOS command prompt, plug the SATA cable into the Xbox 360 DVD drive. (when the usb flash drive boots, it will boot into dos. You'll see something like C:\> plug your sata cable into the 360 drive at that point).

Enter y to accept the iPrep Terms of Use. (press "y" and then press "enter" lol)

Do you have a PC or a mac? If it's a PC you're in luck (I know next to nothing about Apple). What you'll want to do is shut down and restart your computer. Pay attention to the screen as it loads up, before the windows loading screen comes up there should be a screen with commands at the bottom.

Something like "Hit End for BIOS, Hit F12 to Boot from disc, etc." What you'll wanna do is look for the option that says something like 'Boot from'. It's easier than tooling around with Bios, just hit the specified key (mine is F12) you should see a bunch of options (Harddisc, cd, floppy, usb, etc.). Select the one you want, save and restart. Instead of going into windows it'll go directly to your usb drive.
