Ftp is when you connect your xbox to you pc. You can transfer files when you use ftp.

Yes, if you have an ethernet modem with just one port of ethernet and a router, you use three RJ-45 cables aka cat5 cable. If you have an internet modem with more than one port, you can use a crossover cable.

if you have a wireless adapter hooked up to your xbox, of course. however, youll achieve much greater transfer speeds if its a wired connection.

SOFTMOD INSTALLER DELUXE v2.0
-----------------------------
Created by DJB on 20th February 2005
+ What's Fixed / Improved?
+ Release Notes
+ What does it do?
+ What does it include?
+ What do I need?
+ How do I do it? - 007 Agent Under Fire Install
+ How do I do it? - MechAssault Install
+ How do I do it? - Splinter Cell Install
What's Fixed / Improved?
------------------------
+ Game saves have now been made Action Replay / Mega X-Key compatible.
+ Skin problem fixed.
Release Notes
-------------
Since I've seen so many of these being released, I decided to have a go at putting one
together myself. The main thing that inspired me to do this was the fact that I had
trouble with my MechAssault original, and I had to mod a 1.6 Xbox. Therefore, I decided
to compile my own.
It is also the perfect partner for Auto-Installer Deluxe v1.01 and later, as you can
update your dashboard (which will be located at C:\evoxdash.xbe or E:\evoxdash.xbe as
default). You can also install more apps and emulators to boost up your Xbox a little more.
I hope you enjoy this little release...
What does it include?
---------------------
+ Softmod Exploit Packages for 007 Agent Under Fire, MechAssault, and Splinter Cell.
+ bert-generic.xtf, ernie.xtf, s.xtf, s2.xtf, and s3.xtf hacked fonts.
+ Signed Phoenix BIOS Loader, with Dual Boot function.
+ Evox M8+ 1.6 BFM BIOS (with G Drive Support for HDD Upgrades).
+ Unleash 0.37.1218 Build 543 and Evolution X 1.8.3935 for Dashboards.
+ Dvd2Xbox 0.6.3 (to rip smaller games and Audio CDs to your HDD).
+ DVD-X v2 to watch DVDs, without the remote.
+ Backup / Recovery functions.
What does it do?
----------------
Softmod Installer Deluxe is similar to other various gamesave exploit installers such as
lTools, SIN, and WaffleTools. Once this gamesave is on your Xbox HDD and you have booted
your game of choice, you can softmod your Xbox. The installer will even make a backup of
your C Partition just in case it doesn't work, just in case.
It will install a Dashboard at C:\evoxdash.xbe (or E:\evoxdash.xbe if you prefer), Font
Exploits, DVD-X (for watching movies), and a BIOS Loader (PBL) to load the hacked bios.
This installer should work on ALL current Xboxes to this date.
What does Softmodding do? It allows you to run a Dashboard and play burned discs with an
Xbox that doesn't have a Modchip. It is the easiest and quickest ways to mod your Xbox,
wihout having to pull it apart. You can however go one step further and replace your stock
HDD and softmod, but as of yet I haven't done this.
What do I need?
---------------
+ This Softmod Installer (obviously).
+ Latest MS Dash (version 5960), just run a newish game with Xbox Live support (Burnont 3,
Need for Speed Underground 2, etc.) and this will update your MS dash to the latest one.
Alternitavely, you can extract it from Auto-Installer Deluxe v1.0 and higher. Extract
the Auto-Installer Deluxe ISO and go to Files\Dash. You'll see a ms-c.zip file here,
which contains the MS Dash 5960. Use either FTP or other means to transfer it over to
E:\Backup\MS\ once the Softmod has been installed. You can also just Format C, install
the new MS Dash, then re-apply the Softmod.
+ An Xbox Memory Card, Action Replay, Mega X-Key, or a compatible USB Memory Stick (you
will need a USB Adapter cable for this) to store the gamesaves so that you can load them
on to your unmodded Xbox.
+ An Original of either 007 Agent Under Fire, Mechassault, or Splinter Cell. Please note
that the Xbox Classics range WILL NOT work, it must be the older versions.
How do I do it? - 007 Agent Under Fire Install
----------------------------------------------
1. Copy the contents of SID.007.AUF.v2.0.Xbox-Hq to your memory device. The best ways are
to use a modded Xbox to do it (by unzipping the file and copying the contents to
E:\) and then transfering to your memory card, or use a Mega X-Key or
Action Replay to dump the ZIP files on to.
2. Make sure the gamesave is on your unmodded Xbox, then turn it off.
3. Insert 007 AUF and turn your Xbox on. When you're at the main menu of the game,
select "Load Mission" and then highlight "Xbox HDD". Tress A to boot the Installer.
4. Once the Installer has boot, I strongly suggest to make a backup of your C Drive.
Use the "Create C Backup" option to backup your C drive. To back up the Eeprom you'll
need to use the Evolution X dashboard, which you will have to install yourself after
the softmod is done. The Eeprom backup is stored at C:\Backup (this can't be changed
unfortunately) so please remember this.
5. Install the Softmod. Please note this deletes the MS Dash from C Drive, hence why you
have been told to use the backup feature.
6. Install what dashboard you wish to use. Unfortunately due to lack of space I can only
put Evolution X and UnleashX in this package, I hope that is good enough.
7. Shut down your Xbox, then restart it and remove the disc. If this has worked like it
should, you should see your choice of dashboard (either EvoX or UnleashX). Please note
if you boot your Xbox and leave the DVD Tray open it will take you back to the menu
where you installed your Softmod.
8. If you want to put the MS Dashboard back on your Xbox, you'll need to put MS Dash 5960
on your Xbox. The easiest way to do this (once the box is softmodded) is to use my
Auto-Installer Deluxe to delete the files from C Drive and install the latest MS Dash.
Note: when this is done you'll have to repeat steps 3 to 7.
9. Restart your Xbox with the DVD tray open to bring up the Softmod menu. Run the "Patch
MS 5960" now, and it will put the MS Dash back on C Drive, and patch it so your
Dashboards can now use it. Note, the MS Dashboard will be called msdash.xbe now, since
the Xbox still needs the hacked xboxdash.xbe in order to boot the softmod. Once you've
selected this option, it will run through some tasks, then boot PPF-XBOX to do the rest.
After PPF-XBOX has done it's work it will restart your Xbox.
10. Now is the time to make a backup of your modded C drive. This comes handy just in case
a game tries to update your dashboard. If this ever happens, just use the "Restore
Mod Backup". If you ever want to remove the Softmod (mainly for Xbox Live purposes)
you can restore your backup of C Drive by using the "Restore C Backup" option
in the Softmod menu.
How do I do it? - Mechassault Install
-------------------------------------
1. Copy the contents of SID.007.MechAssault.v2.0.Xbox-Hq to your memory device. The best
ways are to use a modded Xbox to do it (by unzipping the file and copying the contents
to E:\) and then transfering to your memory card, or use a Mega X-Key or
Action Replay to dump the ZIP files on to.
2. Make sure the gamesave is on your unmodded Xbox, then turn it off.
3. Insert MechAssault and turn your Xbox on. When you're at the main menu of the game,
select "Campaign" and then highlight "Run Linux". The information below should be
shown when highlighing this, if so press A to boot the Installer. If not, your version
of MechAssult is too new (the exploit was patched in later releases).
Controls: Normal
Difficulty: Regular
Current Level: Going Down Hard
4. Once the Installer has boot, I strongly suggest to make a backup of your C Drive.
Use the "Create C Backup" option to backup your C drive. To back up the Eeprom you'll
need to use the Evolution X dashboard, which you will have to install yourself after
the softmod is done. The Eeprom backup is stored at C:\Backup (this can't be changed
unfortunately) so please remember this.
5. Install the Softmod. Please note this deletes the MS Dash from C Drive, hence why you
have been told to use the backup feature.

in the Softmod menu.
How do I do it? - Splinter Cell Install
---------------------------------------
1. Copy the contents of SID.Splinter.Cell.v2.0.Xbox-Hq to your memory device. Also copy
Splinter.Cell.v2.0.NTSC.Xbox-Hq or Splinter.Cell.v2.0.PAL.Xbox-Hq as it's needed too.
The best ways are to use a modded Xbox to do it (by unzipping the file and copying the
contents to E:\) and then transfering to your memory card, or use a Mega X-Key or
Action Replay to dump the ZIP files on to.
2. Make sure the gamesave is on your unmodded Xbox, then turn it off.
3. Insert Splinter Cell and turn your Xbox on. When you're at the main menu of the game,
select "Load Game" and then highlight "Linux". Tress A to boot the Installer.

well go to xbins and download king roachs ndure installer. you also need to get xplorer360. just search for it on google. you have to hotswap and when windows loads start up xplorer360 and click on drive>open>harddrive or memcard. Click ok when the message pops up and you should see partitions 0-4. If not, then you didnt do hotswap right and you have to start over. When you get this done post again and ill tell you the rest.
