This page contains latest boot tests of ReactOS Xbox Port in XQEMU using custom Cromwell 2.41-dev BIOS. Tests also needs to be performed on real Xbox hardware.
Help testing
ReactOS FAT32 boot
- Create a virtual disk drive (2 GB recommended).
- Install ReactOS from
bootcd.iso
in normal QEMU:
- Select computer type "Original Xbox".
- Select display type "Original Xbox NV2A Framebuffer".
- Format disk as FAT32.
- Modify
freeldr.ini
manually (because CORE-16218):
DefaultOS=ReactOS_KdSerial
to enable debugging over serial.
- Copy over your hard disk image to XQEMU directory.
- Download one of the available Cromwell firmware binaries from the links below, either flash or execute it, and choose hda1 boot device on start.
ReactOS FATX boot
- Install ReactOS from
bootcd.iso
in QEMU or any other PC emulator:
- Select computer type "Original Xbox".
- Select display type "Original Xbox NV2A Framebuffer".
- Right after 1st stage setup, power down VM, and extract all files from virtual HDD using 7-Zip into desired folder.
Boot in XQEMU
- Use XboxHDM to create FATX formatted drive from scratch as follows:
- Move all extracted ReactOS files into the directory
/xboxhdm/linux/E/
.
- Execute
make-iso-win.bat
or ./make-iso-lin.sh
depending on your host OS, it will generate linux.iso
file.
- Create empty 8 GB virtual hard drive.
- Boot
linux.iso
in QEMU with empty HDD attached, it will start Linux with XboxHDM and allow to format the drive as FATX. It also will copy all files to the newly created partition.
- Copy over hard disk image to XQEMU directory.
Boot on hardware
- Place all extracted files in the root of Xbox E:\ hard drive.
Final step
- Download one of the available Cromwell firmware binaries from the links below, either flash or execute it, and choose FatX (E:) boot device on start.
