^^^^^WTF kind of dumb thing to say is that like come on man.the beatles are old but ppl still listen to them lmao... i just had to say something about that dumb post.
Quote: O.K. I have downloaded ltools_MA_v1.7.5 i have it copied to my xbox hdd. i have the original mechassault and everything but when i run the "Run Linux" i get a screen with a black background and green letters that says
"Service Required.Call Customer Support."
with a 21 in the top left corner and then probably the same words just spelled in a bunch of different languages..And then the light blinks red and green.What could be causing this and what can i do to fix this?
Thanks in advance... Sorry if i am asking a question that has allready been answered.
A LITLE HELP?>!

Finally back from the journey. Ask away.
@lucien
Just keep waiting, the screen does not come up automatically. If you wait for 2 hours and the screen still does not come up, I would suggest using a different game.

I can help you too. The ldots itools package can help you softmod your XBOX by using a great and easy-to-use interface. You can get it by downloading it from #xbins, if you need any help at all with that, try my tutorial, as it goes hand-in-hand with jon's:

guys incase you have this problem just make sure you check the version of mech assault you have beacause evrytime i downloaded a file and went to pput it on MA it said cannot load " run linux" and it turns out to be that i have the second version
If at first you do succeed...try not to look astonished.:/

--------PLEASE READ THIS--------------------------------------------
ok, i need help
--im using a SanDisk micro 256mb usb to transfer the files
--i also have an adapter for my xbox(hooks into contrler port with a female usb on the other end.
--i have tried about 20 different programs for mechassault
--i do have the original version
--But every time when i plug the usb port in at my dashboard(xboxlive enabled) it says that the memory unit is corrupted and erases it.
--i have never seen the "run linux" at the mechassault campain or in the memory tab at my dashboard.
--every time i plug it into my computer it makes me format it.
--i can not put any new files on to my usb without my computer formatting it. i use windows 98 or xp not sure.
--i downloaded action replay from the net, so i have the software and the program with all the files but none of the hard ware.
--i am very good at using mIRC. i have that figured out. i fairly understand how to use FlashFXP. But i am able to use it.
--i have deleted all of my original MA saves from my xbox harddrive.
--when i run campain i only see the profile for "mechwarrior" nothing about linux.
Is there a certain way im suppose to turn or restart my xbox so my usb isnt erased? Or am i suppose to wait for my xbox to format the usb, if so HOW LONG?
---please if u know any info or have any suggestions please post or email me at joeky@bellsouth.net

when u access ur memory card from ur ms dash two things come up...
the memory card itself and the lunix file. scroll to the lunix file. then press right to select the sub file under "lunix" which will probably hav the same name. c if that works

@ILLMAG7 - You can get the gamesave from Xbins in the directory i listed in the tutorial. If you ned help on how to use Xbins, check Slith's excellent tut...wish i had a direct link to it, but it's stickied in another forum. General Xbox forum i think. Also, yes you can mod your Xbox no matter what type of DVD drive you have. Don't listen to those "know it alls" who actually know nothing...
