Creates a properly partitioned Xbox One hard drive. You'll want to source the
entire original drive files or use the latest OSU1 files.

FEATURES:
1. Wipe drive of all partitions and GUID values
2. Create a Standard Xbox One 500GB, 1TB, or 2TB internal hard drive
3. Upgrade a Standard Xbox One drive to non-standard sizes including
as small as 138GB, as large as 1947GB, and other non-standard sizes
4. Set Standard Xbox One GUID values w/o formatting the drive

Make an "UBUNTU FAT32" flash drive with ubuntu-17.10.1-desktop-amd64.iso or

newer created with LinuxLive USB Creator 2.9.4.exe

Download Linux Live USB Creator:

You'll need some sort of USB to SATA device or have the ability to connect a
SATA drive directly to your PC. I recommend the USB3S2SAT3CB USB 3.0 to SATA
adapter cable.

NOTES AND WARNINGS:

NOTE 1: Xbox One internal drives have a 2TB limit that you cannot get around.
This is a bug or feature by Microsoft's design.
This is the video I made trying to fill a 5TB internal drive.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcoa8Xx_6oU
Version 7.0 and above max the "User Content" partition out at 1947GB.
Theoretically you can created a larger partition than this but you
cannot use the additional space.

WARNING 1: E100 is bad. It is possible to do an offline update to resolve it

but this mostly isn't the case. E100 is the only know error that
actually refers to the Blu-ray drive. Under certain circumstances
during an Xbox One update the Blu-ray drive firmware can become
permanently corrupted. Any sort of Blu-ray drive failure involving
the daughterboard will brick your system since only the original
factory matching Xbox One motherboard and Blu-ray daughterboard can
be used together.
YOU CANNOT REPLACE A BLU-RAY DAUGHTERBOARD FROM ANOTHER SYSTEM!

EXAMPLE SCRIPT USAGE AND OUTPUT:

 1. Unzip xboxonehdd-master-7.zip to the root of the "UBUNTU FAT32" flash drive
which will create an xboxonehdd-master directory
2. Boot the "UBUNTU FAT32" flash drive and choose "Try Ubuntu"
3. Right click the desktop and select "Open Terminal"
4. cd /media/cdrom/xboxonehdd-master/linux
5. Use the following command to find the drive you wish to partition, /dev/sdb in
my case but your case may be different:
sudo ./list_part_info.sh

Current Drive List:

Disk /dev/sda: 480GB
Disk /dev/sdb: 2000GB
Disk /dev/sdc: 16.0GB

Usage: list_part_info.sh /dev/sd*

Examples:
list_part_info.sh /dev/sdb (List Disk Partition Information)

6. sudo ./create_xbox_drive.sh

Last Updated: 2018.05.10.7.0

Usage: create_xbox_drive.sh [options]

Options:
-c|--source Source drive to copy data to target drive -d with -s 2
-d|--drive Target drive to install Xbox filesystem
-s|--stage Install stage [0|1|2|3]
0 - will fully erase drive -d
1 - will erase and partition drive -d
2 - will copy source drive -c data to target drive -d
3 - will rewrite drive -d GUIDs
-t|--disktype Disk GUID to set [0|1|2]
0 - 500GB
1 - 1TB
2 - 2TB
-m|--mirror Mirror standard partition sizes specified with -t on drive -d
Not using this option will autosize 'User Content'
-h|--help Display help

Examples:
create_xbox_drive.sh -d /dev/sdb -s 0 (Erase a drive)
create_xbox_drive.sh -d /dev/sdb -s 1 -t 2 -m (Partition standard 2TB drive)
create_xbox_drive.sh -d /dev/sdb -s 3 -t 2 -m (Rewrite 2TB GUIDs)

7. First erase and partition the specified drive:

NOTE: Replace /dev/sdb with your drive, change -t 2 to -t 0 for

500GB drives and -t 1 for 1TB drives, and optionally use -m to force
standard Xbox One Partition sizes

sudo ./create_xbox_drive.sh -d /dev/sdb -s 1 -t 2 -m

8. OPTIONAL (skip if you don't have a working standard Xbox One drive):
Second if you have a working standard Xbox One drive you can copy the data
from that drive to the new drive with:

NOTE: Replace /dev/sda with your source drive, /dev/sdb with your target
drive, change -t 2 to -t 0 for 500GB drives and -t 1 for 1TB drives, and
optionally use -m to force standard Xbox One Partition sizes
 sudo ./create_xbox_drive.sh -c /dev/sda -d /dev/sdb -s 2 -t 2 -m
9. Third rewrite the drive GUID values to Xbox One compatible ones:

NOTE: Again replace /dev/sdb with your drive, change -t 2 to -t 0 for

500GB drives and -t 1 for 1TB drives, and optionally use -m to force
standard Xbox One Partition sizes

sudo ./create_xbox_drive.sh -d /dev/sdb -s 3 -t 2 -m

10. Check to see that your newly created drive matches the output below:
5B114955-4A1C-45C4-86DC-D95070008139 /dev/sd* (2TB)
25E8A1B2-0B2A-4474-93FA-35B847D97EE5 /dev/sd* (1TB)
A2344BDB-D6DE-4766-9EB5-4109A12228E5 /dev/sd* (500GB)

sudo ./list_part_info.sh /dev/sdb

11. OPTIONAL (skip if you are able to do step 8, also skip if OSU1 doesn't
match the last successful update):
Mount /media/ubuntu/System\ Update/ by right clicking the proper drive in
the left hand menu and select Open
12. OPTIONAL (skip if you are able to do step 8, also skip if OSU1 doesn't
match the last successful update):
Download the latest OSU1.zip which contains the files:

$SystemUpdate/host.xvd
$SystemUpdate/SettingsTemplate.xvd
$SystemUpdate/system.xvd
$SystemUpdate/systemaux.xvd
$SystemUpdate/systemmisc.xvd
$SystemUpdate/systemtools.xvd

A/systemmisc.xvd
A/systemtools.xvd
