"Please insert an Xbox disc..." is confusing #1
Comments
I looked for information on how to detect a CD / DVD type. It appears to be done in software, the SMC only tells you wether the disc tray is opened / closed:
So we can use code that's similar to that in this XQEMU-Manager PR. Additionally, we can query the DVD-X2 state from the drive, which is mode sense page 0x3E, to detect the broken XQEMU drive / authentication. |

If the kernel doesn't identify a valid disc it will launch into the dashboard.
In that case, this code is printing a confusing message:
xqemu-hdd-image/xboxdash/main.c
Lines 16 to 18 in ad4e8c5
This message will be shown, regardless of the current system state. If the user supplies a valid Xbox image (redump ISO), the message will still be printed in XQEMU (because of missing drive emulation).
We should probably add some code to check if a disc was inserted, and report the most common issues and current system state (disc drive information + kernel information).
