1)
Get
EvolutionX.
(For
legal
reasons
we can't
place
a download
link
here.)
2)
You
need
a modchip
or flashed
TSOP
(or
correctly
installed
exploit
...
this
tutorial
will
not
go deeper
into
this
specific
setup).
You
must
flash
your
Xbox
with
a newer
hacked
bios
that
has
the
"change
bootfile
v2"
or higher
feature
so it
can
boot-up
with
evoxdash.xbe
(X2
4972+
and
EvoX
3.6+
have
this).
3)
Burn
the
iso
of Evolution-X
to cd-rw
or dvd-r/rw
or whatever
media
actually
loads
on your
xbox.
(tutorial
: Burn
ISOs
with
PrimoDVD
or Burn
ISOs
with
Nero).
If the
EvoX
version
you
downloaded
is not
an .iso
file
, make
a xiso
file
of default.xbe
&
evox.ini
(there's
no need
to include
the
"bios"
&
"skins"
directories
, but
it won't
harm
either)
(check
make
xiso
tutorial).
Note
that
you
might
need
to edit
some
of the
network
settings
in evox.ini
(fix
or non-fix
ip ,
default
gateway
, subnetmask
, ...
) ,
check
the
next
step
for
network
info.
4)
Connect
your
Xbox
with
your
PC (tutorial:
Full
guide
to network
your
Xbox:
FTP'ing
to your
xbox
and
more
or Basic
Networking
(how
to connect
your
PC with
the
Xbox))
5)
Load
the
EvoX
disc
you
just
burned
on your
xbox
, after
loaded
scroll
down
and
select
"System
Utils"
, then
select
"Settings"
and
then
scroll
down
to "IP".
(note
: if
you
gave
a fix
IP while
editing
the
evox.ini
file
you
already
know
the
IP ofcourse)
6)
This
will
give
the
IP of
your
xbox
on your
network.
7)
Open
an FTP
client
on your
PC.
We use
FlashFXP
, but
you
can
use
another
FTP
client
if you
prefer.
8)
Open
FlashFXP
The
screen
is divided
in 2
parts.
On the
left
side
you
should
get
the
content
of your
PC harddrive.
To switch
between
ftp/hdd
use
the
top
button
the
rightside.
09)
On the
rightside
, click
the
first
topbutton
and
choose
"quick
connect".
10)
Connect
to your
Xbox
Fill
in the
IP (you
got
from
the
EvoX
in step6).
The
username
is always
"xbox"
, the
password
is standard
"xbox"
unless
you
changed
it in
your
evox.ini
file.
11)
On the
rightside
of Flashfxp
you
should
see
this
:
12)
Backup
your
Xbox
harddrive
On the
leftside
(PC
harddrive)
go somewhere
with
alot
of free
webspace.
(300MB
should
be enough)
Select
"C"
&
"E"
on the
righside
right-click
and
select
"transfer".
It will
now
copy
the
C &
E drive
of your
xbox
to your
PC HD.
(it
can
take
some
mins).
Make
sure
to keep
this
as backup
if something
goes
wrong.
13)
Enter
the
C directory
on the
Xbox
harddrive
(right
side).
It should
look
like
this.
14)
Now
go to
the
directory
on your
PC harddrive
where
EvoX
is.
(If
you
only
have
the
.iso
file
you
will
have
to extract
it first
- tutorial).
You
will
now
have
a :
* 'evox.ini'
file
: make
sure
to open
the
file
with
notepad
and
configure
all
the
settings
(most
important
your
network
settings
- the
standard
settings
of all
the
other
options
should
be ok).
* 'default.xbe'
or 'evoxdash.xbe':
rename
this
file
to 'evoxdash.xbe'.
* '/skin'
directory
* '/bios'
directory
* '/trainers'
directory
Now
copy
these
2 files
(evox.ini
and
evoxdash.xbe)
and
the
3 directories
with
all
files
in to
in the
C-drive
on your
Xbox.
15)
Remove
the
CD ,
turn
off
your
xbox
and
restart.
It should
now
boot
up to
the
EvolutionX
dashboard.
If it
doesn't
work
your
xbox
isn't
doomed
, you
can
still
axx
the
the
xbox
harddrive
with
the
CD.
(and
if needed
restore
with
the
backup
of C
&
E you
made).
