Here's a list of things I used:
* 007AUF Evox Installer (Just in case you mess up)
* Backup of anything I wanted to keep on F:/
* Slayers Auto Installer on CDRW
* Phoenix Bios Loader 1.3/w X2 4977Bios (xboxrom.bin)
* XBtool_1.0.8b16 w/RC4 keys
* 160Gb WD HDD
* V1.1 xbox (brand new at Walmart, could be other)

First of all please refer to all the previous Tutorials on setting up your Xbox with a Large HDD and MSxboxdash.xbe that loads .xft.

Now to free up those extra 20+ gigs on that new HDD

1. Ensure XBtool config folder has bfm.cfg with correct RC4 key

2. Open XBtool
-a. Under bios type ensure bfm is selected
-b. Under File options click open
--1. Select xboxrom.bin from your Phoenix Bios Loader folder (or ftp from xbox C:/)
-c. Under LBA48 Support and Default Partition Table Options
--1. Check LBA48 Support
--2. Ensure Ignore Hard Drive Partition Table is unchecked
--3. Select Partition 6 Takes Rest of The Drive
-d. Save as xboxromLBA48.bin (for backup purposes)

3. Open Flash FXP and go to your xbox C:/ drive

-i. Make sure you can boot evox through 007 or MA before continuing

-a. Rename xboxrom.bin in your xbox C:/ drive to xboxrom0.bin
-b. Transfer xboxromLBA48.bin from your comp to your xbox C:/ drive
-c. Rename xboxromLBA48.bin to xboxrom.bin

4. Restart and see what happens. You should boot to the same dashboard you did earlier.

-----If no dashboard boots you will need to recheck your bios. Use 007AUF gamesave to recover ftp access to change your xboxrom.bin back to the original and start over.------

!Congratulations! You just wiped out your entire F:/ Drive! Notice many options in your evox menu are not available. Your F space probably says 137 though! Almost there.

5. Setup Slayers on your Xbox.

-a. Insert Slayers CDRW (or better) into dvd drive.
-b. FTP entire contents into a Slayers folder on your computer
-c. FTP Slayers folder to xbox e:/apps/
-d. Edit exox.ini with text editor if needed ie... autoadditem "e/apps"

6. Run Slayers

-a. Select option 8) from the menu "Format any 1.x drive"
-b. Select Format F: partition only

ooh ooh its Magic... when I'm with you... Notice F:drive space is now 155gb or better!

7. Get started with some apps by tranfering .../Slayers/SYSTEM/ALL/f from your comp to your xbox F:/drive

Nice job Nghtshd and oz_paulb! And of course the rest of the scene...
