| 00:16.58 | balrog-kun | hey |
| 00:17.23 | balrog-kun | is is possible to flash a rom image in the typical format from a running Linux? |
| 00:17.43 | balrog-kun | or do you always have to reboot and use the boot menu to do that? |
| 00:19.06 | nasum | balrog: what do you mean exactly? |
| 00:26.25 | balrog-kun | nasum: i have a rom image, i'd like to flash it |
| 00:26.34 | balrog-kun | nasum: and i don't want to reboot |
| 00:27.08 | balrog-kun | (i don't want to boot the new rom, just flash it) |
| 00:27.46 | nasum | ic |
| 00:27.50 | Tomoe | why do you not want to reboot? |
| 00:27.56 | Tomoe | I mean, what's the point? |
| 00:28.07 | nasum | I always use the method of flashing w/the reset button where you open the battery |
| 00:28.44 | balrog-kun | Tomoe: the reason is very technical, i need to see exactly how the image looks in the ROM later |
| 00:29.26 | balrog-kun | the images are checksumed and stuff, not written raw to the rom |
| 00:30.49 | nasum | ? |
| 00:30.50 | nasum | rly? |
| 00:31.12 | balrog-kun | rly :p |
| 00:31.23 | nasum | I would think it was already linked exactly when you creat the bin |
| 00:31.46 | nasum | in any case, thet doesn't mean you can't reboot |
| 00:31.46 | balrog-kun | it mostly is, except for some details |
| 00:31.55 | nasum | can't you just flash, reboot, then read the rom? |
| 00:32.42 | balrog-kun | i could but i don't have the boot PROM from Sharp on my device |
| 00:32.59 | balrog-kun | i dont' have the menu or the typical bootloader |
| 00:33.29 | nasum | hrm |
| 00:33.35 | nasum | so you are worried about briking it? |
| 00:33.40 | nasum | s/k/ck/ |
| 00:33.56 | nasum | (what a nice bot) |
| 00:34.15 | balrog-kun | not really, just don't know how to flash the rom image from the running Linux |
| 00:35.48 | balrog-kun | there's /dev/mtd0, mtd1, mtdblock0, mtdblock1 but direct writing to them will not do the same transformation on the image as the Sharp prom |

| 10:03.03 | balrog-kun | Tomoe: trying to emulate the flash chip in software |
| 10:04.40 | balrog-kun | well, the emulation works, just messing with the image format but i think i got it now |
