2001 Audi S8
I recall the dealer called me to come buy the first Phatbox available at their parts dept for Audi, as they knew of my interest, so, an early model? any differences?
20GB DMS
I tried this process first with 1.0.3 same result. then ran patchclean(hmm, maybe wasn't supposed to do that, but 1.0.3 was not working, wiki said return DMS to original state).
Then, retried with 1.1.3 logs below are from this try....
current state:
1.1.3 patch is on the DMS, DMS is backed up, new 160GB Seagate is here, ready to go
waiting for instructions on how to get past this hitch in the patching process....

So, both scripts seem to work.
I follow the procedure at
http://wiki.phathack.com/Windows_Hack_Procedure after inserting the DMS, the Phatbox boots, and eventually (under 40 seconds) just starts playing music as usual.
No hack executed.
There are no log files in /log - empty directory
If I corrupt the ramdisk.sig file with 8 or 9 extraneos letters at its beginning(saving the old one) the phatbox boots, then shuts down and goes to another source on the headunit. I retry 6 times. Same thing each time.
bootload.log:
BOOT0-0: OK
BOOT0-1: OK
BOOT0: Successful
BOOT9: Successful
BOOTB: Successful
BOOTF: Successful
BOOT*-X: Failed
If I restore the ramdisk.sig to its original, the phatbox boots, does not apply the patch, and plays music as usual, and the bootload.log looks like this:
BOOT0-0: OK
BOOT0-1: OK
BOOT0: Successful
BOOT9: Successful
BOOTB: Successful
BOOTF: Successful
BOOT*-X: Successful
Please see link above to copies of the DMS folders in their current state.
Thanks for your help, in advance....
