Hi Nathan,

The release 0.3 has Myth 0.11 in it. To use 0.12, download the tar from 
my website and replace the myth_progfs that came with release 0.3 with 
the version from the 0.12 tar.

I am working on 0.13 support and should have it out this weekend. The 
upgrade process is identical.

To find the age of your xbox, examine the serial number and then go to 
one of the online databases like http://www.xbox-scene.com/versions.php.
