Hi,
I did your same error with a friend's box, and I recovered the drive by 
plugging it on xbox,  putting it on, and hotswitching the disk to a PC 
with atapwd.exe on a dos boot floppy, with wich I completed the 
unlocking and disabling of password.

Now, I've got a new question: I replaced the 10gb drive with a new 80gb 
one, but how can I recognize new space ?
Have I to partition it as "F:" drive ? and how could I do it ?

I'm sorry for that questions, but I use my personal xbox as a linux PC 
(with a 300gb drive...) , and that is the first xbox that I have to 
upgrade with dashboard installed. this xbox has a xecuter2 chip with 
1.8.25xx bios.......
