>> FrostyTheSnowman released 2 useful discs for the Xbox1.

* Frosty's XBOX Rescue Disc v1.0:
[QUOTE]
NOTE: This Rescue Disc REQUIRES that your XBOX is either Softmodded, Modchipped, or TSOP flashed. This disc WILL NOT WORK with an unmodified retail XBOX.
NOTE2: For softmods, you NEED to have a hard drive that is locked and has a functional 'C' drive to work.

Features:
- Supports all current Softmods, Modchips, and TSOP Flashes
- Entirely DVD based!
- Full support for ALL XBOX versions! (v1.0-v1.6b)
- Full, unrestricted FTP access to the XBOX hard drive partitions! (C,E,F,G,X,Y & Z)
- Allows full access to the REAL C drive on Softmods! (overrides ShadowC drives)
- Supports F & G Drives
- Supports Custom Partitions
- Includes DVD2XBOX and XBpartitioner(info) (both are entirely DVD based)
- Allows LOCKING and UNLOCKING of XBOX Hard Drives! (This disc will only lock and unlock hard drives with the same key as the EEPROM on the motherboard.)
- Changes 'Ring of Light' to RED to confirm the Rescue Disc is running

* Frosty's Dual-Boot VGA Softmod v1.0
[QUOTE]
NOTE: This softmod is intended ONLY for v1.0-v1.5 NTSC XBOX consoles! If you have a PAL XBOX console, you will need to use a NTSC/PAL switching utility to change your PAL XBOX to an NTSC version before you can use this softmod. (Enigmah PAL-NTSC Switcher can do this)
NOTE2: This is a softmod, not a BIOS. This softmod requires a RETAIL XBOX BIOS to run, it will NOT run with any hacked BIOSes or Modchips.

- 100% FULL VGA SUPPORT! ALL GAMES/APPLICATIONS ARE 100% COMPATIBLE!
- Force480p (VGA mode only, forces 480i games to run at 480p)

- Supports Conexant Encoders
- Supports Focus Encoders
- F & G Drive Support (LBA48)
- Custom Partition Support (Supports up to 750GB HDDs w/XBpartitioner)
- IGR Support (In-Game-Reset, done by L+R+BACK+BLACK or L+R+BACK+START)
- ShadowC Drive (Protects softmod from being damaged)
