HDD stuff... after the softmod is accomplished

Posted 10-27-2011 at 09:18 PM by omgiamlinux

Once you have your xbox softmodded, backup the EEPROM with evox, and move it to E: Then grab it off the network. Also backup C: and MS Dash and pull that off the network too for safe keeping.

Then setup and burn an iso of xbox hdm 1.9 with your eeprom in it.

Then format the new drive and have it automatically load the C: and e: files on there.

Finally, you will need to lock it with... Linux, the utils available from the boot menu as option #3....

I setup virtual box. I setup win7 remote assistance.

Posted 10-27-2011 at 09:14 PM by omgiamlinux

I setup virtual box on my laptop. It's surprizingly good! I have always been told that it is utter crap and that I should buy VM ware, but I actually like virtual box a little more! Networking isn't configured right out of the box (and it is much slower than VM ware's networking), but it has this sweet feature called "seamless mode" where it puts the debian task bar just above the windows taskbar, and the debian top-bar at the top of the screen, and instead of showing the debian desktop,...

Day 3: VIM and buffers!

Posted 10-27-2011 at 08:40 PM by omgiamlinux

ref: http://www.worldtimzone.com/res/vi.html

With buffers, vim makes it easy to switch between multiple files.

Code:
:e filename  - open a file in a new buffer

:ls   - list buffers


:b 1  - switch to the first buffer

:b name - switch to a buffer whose name begins with /name/

:b#   - switch to the previously edited buffer

:bd   - delete a buffer (close file)

Day 1: My very first (and most terrible) VI notes

Posted 10-27-2011 at 08:29 PM by omgiamlinux
Updated 10-27-2011 at 08:37 PM by omgiamlinux

Notes: VI is a very slow thing to learn, but it's well worth taking the time learning it. It makes working on code, almost like a very fun logic game. It's also the fastest way to program in any language (well... faster than 'notepad' style text editors hands down anyway). The only reason everyone doesn't use VIM and EMACS is because the software really does take quite a while to get the hang of. Anyway, each blog entry I make on VIM, you should mul over a lot and practice until you get the...
