Gamecube with QooB SX + SD Gecko ¿Flashing QooB with iplboot?
Posted: Sat Dec 26, 2020 12:50 pm
Hi everyone! Recently i repaired mi first and old NGC and installed a QooB SX on it. The thing is... The disc drive is really old (it is a DOL 001 NTSC machine) and I want to load games from de memory card slot using swiss. I was going to burn a bootable swiss disc and then boot it from the SX menu but I discovered this beautiful piece of software called IPLBOOT that can be installed as a "alternative bios of the QooB SX" (as I understand) thanks to this thread :

So, I want to ask some questions about this setup.
First I'll need to create a miniDVD with de .dol that flashes IPLboot on mi QooB SX chip right? The dol in question is the one downloadable from here ?? --- >> https://github.com/redolution/iplboot/releases/tag/r5.2
If that is not the .dol could someone please link to me the right one?
Second: Once I get the bootable dvd y star QooB in flash mode, flash the IPLboot and then... The next time I boot the NGC instead the QooB menu the IPLboot menu will load as a default ? Or there is another configuration I must do?
Third: Once IPLboot is installed... How do I load Swiss from de memory card (with de SD on it) ?
Fourth: If all goes as planned, the disc drive won't be used anymore right ?
Thanks in advice !
