format the hard drive
First, back up all your files from your C: and E: ( and F: if you had one) drives to your computer.
Install your new HD into the Xbox. It does NOT need to be formatted or prepared in any way. Just throw it in there.
Burn the EvoX dashboard to a CDRW or DVD-R (no CDRs). I suggest using the pre-made ISO Dummy images that can be found on the net. Dummy images are simply ISO images with 500+ MB of "dummy" data to force the EvoX data to the outer rim of the CDRW where it can be read easier.
Launch Evolution-X Dashboard off CDRW/DVD-R. If you drive doesn't read it the first time, don't give up. Turn the Xbox off completely while the disk is still in it, and then back on. If it doesn't boot again, keep trying. It may take a dozen or more tries.
With Evox Dash booted off CDRW/DVD-R, connect through FlashFXP (Windows) or Transmit (MacOS).
You will now need to send "Raw FTP Commands" with your FTP client. You may have to hunt through the pull down menus for an option called "send raw FTP command." Send the following "Raw FTP Command" with your FTP client:
Formatpath \Device\Harddisk0\Partition1
The FTP app will echo a hard drive key (display a long number in a dialog box). Use that key for the next command.
FormatDrive 'the number' (no quotes)
Do the same as above for the next few raw commands:
Formatpath \Device\Harddisk0\Partition2
FormatDrive 'the number'
Formatpath \Device\Harddisk0\Partition6
FormatDrive 'the number'
Formatpath \Device\Harddisk0\Partition7
FormatDrive 'the number'
Your drive is now formatted and ready to use. The X:, Y:, and Z: drives are made automagically.
All you need to do now, is get Evox on the HD. FTP the "default.xbe" from your D: to your computer. Then rename the file to "evoxdash.xbe" and FTP it back to the C:. Then copy the "evox.ini" from the D: to your computer and then back to the C:. Pull your CDRW/DVD-R out, and reboot.
Then you can FTP all your contents of your backed up drive from your computer to the Xbox
(remeber to leave a space inbetween formatpath and \device)
