XBR-Flash for Linux v0.2 Beta released

News via http://www.eurasia.nu/modules.php?na...ticle&sid=2510

Trancy released a new version of XBR-Flash. With LFlash it was already possible to update your XBReboot on NAND-16mb consoles directly from your Xbox 360 booted into a Linux Distro like Gentoo (so no need to flash over LPT or USB again). Based on LFlash, XBR-Flash however will now allow you to flash on 256/512mb consoles as well and v0.2 comes with more additional features.

Quote from xboxhacker.net:


'USE THIS SOFTWARE AT OWN RISK.

Two new features must be tested for 16/256/512MB Nands, so I need some more Beta-tester again ;)
- Bad Block Management (BBM)
- KV and Config Injection

usage: ./a backup.bin xbr_virgin.bin -i

backup.bin Backup from your current Nand
xbr.bin XBReboot file
-i [optional] Injecting KV and Config from the current Nand to XBR-File

If you want to use -i (Injecting KV and Config), KV and Config must be valid in the current Nand, because XBR-Flash read the current Nand out and inject this to the XBR-file

Thanks goes to tmbinc, Redline99 and other I forgot

History
v0.1 initial by tmbinc
v0.1.x used sources from Redline99 (Xell mods)
v0.1.1 modified by trancy
v0.2 Added Bad Block Management (BBM)
Added KV and Config Injection'

Note: This tool can of course only be only be used if you already run XBReboot/XeLL and want to update to a newer version (will be much faster, certainly on BB NANDs), the first time to perform the hack you will still have to do it over LPT or USB.
