In a really small nut shell the glitch utilizes some hardware checks during boot. The process triggers a processor glitch during start when the processor is slowed down, and instead of the 360 restarting when it notices a change in the bootloader the user is able to actually use their own bootloader, thus booting into XeLL and running some good ole fashion homebrew. The 360 is very secure software wise but luckily GliGli was able to find a hardware exploit, the key word being hardware. In order to use the reset glitch the user must solder in a Digilent C-Mod board. Luckily the boards are only $17.95 [as of this writing it was $17.95, since then Digilent won't have any in stock until Sept. 14th, and has raised the price to $22.95, and here I thought we only had ebay gougers to worry about...] through an already preestablished retailer (Digilent) so no price gouging here, so don’t be fooled by any ads on eBay that should be popping up soon. The process is relatively simple though once you get past soldering in a couple wires. Check the links below for details. Official Site: github.com/gligli |
