Xbox Softmodding

==Overview==
Softmodding works by exploiting flaws in the MS Dashboard and certain games. By transferring a hacked save file to an Xbox memory card through a USB device and then loading the file from the game, a program which allows full access to the Xbox, called a '''Dashboard''', can be booted. From there, an FTP connection can be established between your PC and Xbox, allowing you to modify system files on the Xbox HDD, which will enable you to boot the Dashboard of your choice either upon boot or from the MS Dashboard, without the need for the game whose save file had been exploited.
 
The entire process should proceed in three phases:
* 1. Get a hacked save file onto a memory card and confirm you are able to trigger the exploit by loading the file from the game.
* 2. Backup the original HDD and prepare a new one (not required, but highly recommended).
* 3. With the new HDD in the Xbox, use the game save exploit to install a permanent exploit.
