Boot to Freestyle Dash with Dashlaunch..?

[roryson]

ive not got xexmenu installed on my hdd

[AgentD]

change the path in the launch file to the location on your usb

[roryson]

im not sure what info i should put in my launch.ini file for setting up my xbox. ive transfered my freeboot folder and the install folder over to my xbox using ftp, in my client the harddrive is hdd1 not hdd, which should i use.. ?

[AgentD]

Default = Hdd:\Freestyle\default.xex (my xbox hdd shows as Hdd1 in xex menu but in my launch file I have Hdd and it works)

Just to clarify, Freestyle is the name of my folder for freestyle dash, not to be confused with freeboot, which is installed on the nand.
Your folder may read FreeStyleDash 2.2 or similar

[roryson]

so how do i boot to freeboot if i had to..?

[AgentD]

Freeboot is already installed on your nand which allows the console to run unsigned code.
When you switch your console on, freeboot starts and allows you to run xex menu, freestyle dash etc

What you need is Freestyle Dash, dashlaunch and xex menu, the nxe dash(microsoft's xbox dash) is already in place.
When dashlaunch is installed you can access any of the above by holding the relevant button when returning to dashboard.
(you can assign the buttons by editing the paths we talked about in your launch file)

It's not a problem, happy to help, I just keep unsociable hours and can't be online all the time.

So you have xex menu installed and working in your xbox hdd, it should be visible in your game library in NXE dash.

Next in your xbox hdd you should have your Freestyle folder(freestyle dash).

Next in xbox hdd, the folder called Installer that you took from dashlaunch and the launch.ini file

[QuickLaunchButtons]
BUT_X = Hdd:\Content\0000000000000000\C0DE9999\00080000\C0 DE99990F586558 (should read C0DE99990F586558 with no spaces, tried to edit but couldn't fix)
Default = Hdd:\Freestyle\default.xex
[Settings]
nxemini = true
pingpatch = true
contpatch = true
fatalfreeze = false
fatalreboot = false
dvdexitdash = false
xblaexitdash = false
nosysexit = false
nohud = false
noupdater = true
debugout = false
exchandler = true
bootdelay = 0x2A
liveblock = true
livestrong = false
remotenxe = false
hddalive = false
hddtimer = 210


From there run xex menu
Navigate to the Installer folder in xbox hdd.
Press A on the default.xex to install dashlaunch.
Follow the prompts, it will read the launch file, you won't need to make changes when asked but you can apply the patches it suggests.
When it's complete press A to shut down xbox

remove power cable from xbox for 30 secs

When you reboot it should boot directly into Freestyle Dash
