!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!! WARNING !!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't use this tool if you have no way to recover from a bad flash! I have tested it, but not every possible BIOS patch. A bogus profile entry will either cause the patcher to fail, or hose the BIOS file. Use this software at your own risk. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks to Paul Bartholomew for xbflash, to superfro for his BIOS mods, and to k3rn3l and MomDad for ideas, info and support. Thanks to SantMat for his ultra-smooth no-animation patch. Without these people, XBtool would, at best, be much less functional than it is, and, at worst, nonexistent. ============================================================ Extracts, compiles, and patches XBOX BIOS/kernel files. You'll need to supply your own RC4 key for older BIOSes. If you are working with a BIOS which works with both the old xbox and the "1.1" xbox then you don't need an RC4 key. ============================================================ History: 0.8.11.6 -- Added a profile for Added a profile for x2 4977.
