Dash Launch 2.04
----------------

****
at time of this writing, this is ONLY compatible with "freeBOOT" 12611
read info_launch.ini for info on options and setting launch parameters.
****
This a core rewrite, major changes were done to the paths used in the ini
file, the installer can update these for you if you have the old ini files
accessible at the time of install. See the inlcuded sample ini files.

The installer is now much more robust, and can even flash the appropriate
patches to your console for you, all that is required is that you have
installed freeboot 12611
****

================================================================================
Overview - what it does
================================================================================
- It will launch a XeX or CON file from the path you specified in launch.ini
as long as it's valid
- Depending on the button you hold when the xbox is trying to load the NXE, it
will divert to the xex/con tied to that button or return to default as
defined in launch.ini
- Depending which button is held when closing miniblade in NXE (use Y button to
close, release then hold a QL button) it will quick launch a CON or XEX
from your ini file
- allows one to patch kernel/xam at bootup with a freeBOOT patch style bin file
from usb or hdd (in that order) must be in root of the device and be named
"kxam.patch" and be no larger than 0x4000 bytes. Again, kxam.patch binary
format is the same as a compiled freeboot patch bin, but uses real virtual
addresses rather than offsets - see 1.0 release for a windows patch builder
- with the included patch set, launch.xex acts as a helper to detect when
xbox1 emulator loads, allowing memory unlock patch and xbox1 emulator
to function together

================================================================================
Installation
================================================================================
- have the required freeboot version installed on the console

- get the installer to a place where you can run it, and do so. Follow onscreen
instructions. The installer will prompt you if it needs to update the
freeboot patches and will give you an opportunity to configure the new
options

- edit and place launch.ini where you would like it
**See inlcuded sample and the info ini which describes the options allowed**

note: the installer includes upgrade paths for dash launch 1.0 users, it will
optionally update launch.ini files wherever found to use the new path names

when upgrading an existing flash ini file, the installer will fix the paths
as needed and write it back to the installer's files directory to be written
to flash, if you have provided an ini file for flash installation be sure to
say no to the upgrade prompt for an existing flash ini file

================================================================================
Important - going to NXE
================================================================================
- if you need to go back to NXE and have default item set in ini, HOLD RB while
exiting game via miniblade or exit using one of the miniblade options like
family settings or system settings

================================================================================
INI notes
================================================================================
-it's possible to have multiple ini files, priority is: USB, HDD, BB MU, FLASH
(** it is NOT recommended to launch USB con/xex from hdd ini **)
-see http://code.jellycan.com/simpleini/ for more info on the ini parser
