It doesn't appear to be getting much past the initial setup. I
telneted in and had a look at the chimp script which calls another
which does the actual cloning (cloneab). The first bit that this does
is copy what looks like the headers for the partitions. It does the
first but seems to take forever to do the second. I would have
expected it to take a couple of seconds at most (512 x 2).  This is
the stage before it asks you about doing a full copy or copying
partitions.

I don't actually know what version my xbox is. I know it's chipped.
How can I find out what version it is?

thanks for helping out... sorry for being such a n00b
