I have a generic red flashcart from eBay and I can't find the right firmware for it, pretty sure it runs some version of wood but I can't find more information than that.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance!

I don't see my cart there, there is a similar looking one but if you look closely there's missing printing near the pins and the lines on the PCB coming from the pins are going in a different direction.

found a working firmware/kernel, so far at least.

for anyone else curious for any reasons, the kernel i used is _DS_MENU.dat from the folder [ Ace3DS+_R4iLS_Wood_R4_1.62 ] on the flashcart archive github page and the wood version i used was BL2CK 1.30.4

Thanks for your effort anyway Impeeza!

    That Dell data breach is worse than people probably realize....

    I personally handled a call from the second highest person at Raytheon. That call bothered me a lot... The guy was nice and smart what bothered me was the way management basically just blew him off instead of going the extra mile to help him.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    In the end that call ended up costing Dell millions in lost contracts with Raytheon, and really the issue could have been solved for like 450 bucks lol

  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I always thought that capcom shuffled the games in these collection, but apparently they are all in chronological order, which makes legacy collection 2 worthless
