There is no need to concern your self about those blocks. Just proceed with installing xell to obtain your CPU key and then compile freeboot and writing it.

alright thank you so youre saying there is no problem with these blocks and folowing procedure by installing jtag and writing xell/freeboot is fine, hey after i install xell is there another way to get my cpu other then taking pics of my fusesets? like using ethernet cable and a url ? i have seen it done on youtube?

Yes, but I think you need to install xellous for that. It creates a txt file that has your CPU keys and everything else but I really never bothered using that method since my TV has an option to freeze the picture ;).

You should be fine, just carry on with the JTAG process.
