I'm having trouble understanding the difference between dash launch and free boot. Also, I'm at the point where I have installed the RGH and it boots to xell. I also flashed dashboard with usb (xenon.elf and nandflash.bin) but it about 30 bad blocks so I don't know if thats bad or not.
I seem to be in a completely different world because none of the software that everyone appears to be using is working for me. At first I thought it was my soldering even though it looked ok. Then I got help from a forum member to use a different version of the same software.
Basically I had 3 jaspers that would not flash the green light using 2 different coolrunners so I knew something was up. I spent more time trying to figure it out then I'd care to admit, but eventually the solution was to use 360 multibuilder .2 instead of .3 . After this I was getting the blinking light and it glitched to xell.
On the second jasper I have, I tried using jtag tool for everything (v4.23). I read nand, then used it to also write .ecc. I installed coolrunner and again I was getting the flashing light, however it was not glitching after 2 minutes of waiting. Realizing now that I can't trust any software out there, I used multibuilder .2 again and it started to glitch within 2 seconds. So I used multibuilder .3 (because it has the 2.26 included) to make freedash and then I flashed it using usb.
Now I have no idea where I am at because I am extremely frustrated at all the crappy software that is not working and causing me much grief. I don't know which one is actually reliable anymore and even if I found one I don't know what version of that particular software is reliable.
So here is where I'm at: I want to get the final steps for my jasper to be able to boot up backups from external usb. What do I need to do? I am only posting here because at this point, the guides are useless as they have been causing me lots of frustration and grief.
