Some might know that we had a XBox port of ROS a while ago. It was not really maintained because we had no USB working at that time and its the only way to add a Mouse and Keyboard to the Box. Thus the port at all is fully regressed. To fix it we need a way to receive debug output. Well, Output to file and screen works, but not in the early stages of our bootloader + not in the kernel debugger which halts all File System drivers on access and screen output only works on boot, not in GUI Mode. Here we need a Serial Port and the only XBox with a Serial Port is a DevKit. (NOT the green Debug Box). If anyone has one or knows where to get one, plz mail me.

December 2025[FREELDR:XBOX] Fix compilation dependencies and linking for the XBOX build (#8510) CORE-16216 machpc.c: - Surround more PC-specific routines in `#if !defined(SARCH_XBOX)`, so that they aren't compiled for XBOX. - In particular since commit 246f2d29db (PR #8418), the PC-specific `DiskGetConfigType()` was compiled at the same time as the XBOX one. This is now fixed. machxbox.c - […]Hermès Bélusca-Maïto

Hello, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam comments? If so how do you stop it, any plugin or anything you can recommend? I get so much lately it’s driving me insane so any support is very much appreciated.
