Gboot - a ReBooter in Development for the Reset Glitch Hack

[jkipp82]

The Russian Team over at hackfaq.net (http://www.hackfaq.net/main/freeboot-glitch-news/) is working on a ReBooter (hot-reboot of the console into a hacked 360 kernel allowing unsigned XDK software - like done for the SMC (JTAG) hack before) for the Reset Glitch Hack (RGH) (http://www.xbox-scene.com/xbox1data/sep/EFEuVyAlAZFwExdkbZ.php):


Gboot is working
Today it's not a great day, for the J-Tag owners. After some weeks with a lot of work, it is real.
Gboot is running. Gboot is the first kind of rebooter for the Glitch Hack.
Gboot ist no rebooter, like Freeboot. It can actual only boot one game at the time. Now it is a developer version, but there come a ready complete rebooter.
Ok what must you do, to play a game? You need a working Glitch Hack and a dump of the nand.
So why a dump of the nand? We create a nand image with a hacked 13599 Kernel and hardcoded gamepath.
Ok now lets go to Xell Reloaded, we put our fresh generated xenon.elf to a USB drive and plug in into the xbox.
Power on your xbox and enjoy the show.
Yes it works the first game, with a Glitch Hack.
We work hard, that you can enjoy a dashboard like the original, but actual it can only boot a default.xex an nothing other.
And now we feel sorry, for all the J-Tag owners. But guys you are out.
This is a developer version, be patience a public tool comes in a few weeks.

It will never be a "Rebooter" but the closest thing to it i guess.

lol :P , told you man...

its just a matter of time for a good rebooter, this is just a proof of concept.

its just a matter of time for a good rebooter, this is just a proof of concept.It's not a "Rebooter". But it's progress, It's never going to have the potential of the SMC hack.

To add to that, I think, personally it's bullshit..

I mean..."Let's boot into a hacked kernel" - How is that? If there was no kernel running in the first place...Sounds pretty silly to me.

It probably is bullshit. If you can boot an xex you can boot into the dashboard because you need to be fully booted to run an xex in the first place. The only thing that makes sense is the xenon.elf shit. You could, in theory, code a libxenon app to load the next bootloader, and continue the boot process. How this will effect the already initialized hardware, I don't know.
