Hacking Official Corbenik - Another CFW for advanced users (with bytecode patches!)

[gnmmarechal]

Well, Skeith was built and pushed. Time to test how the updater handles it.

The time has come. *gulp*

Here I go.

 

[chaoskagami]

Oh, also. No locale data is bundled at the moment, too. I'm probably just going to distribute the script to generate it.

it isn't? Then I wonder why the updater is taking so long? ocrap

No, it isn't. Dunno why it's taking so long for you. Bug in the updater? :|

ocrap ughhhh I wonder where.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

oh fak

I'm so dumb

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

My server gets skeith from u

but I forgot the script only runs once an hour to fetch skeith.

crap I just migrated data while using an old build of skeith. x.x

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

@chaoskagami where are the nochain releases?

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Anyway, the updater *seems* to properly migrate the data.

I've dropped the nochains for now, since there's too many toggles and building them all is a pain. Still possible to build from source with --disable-chainloader x_x

Hum, I'll have to remove the option to download the nochain nightly then.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Oh, also, the latest skeith, on the topbar, says ".corbenik", and it isn't even capitalised as ".Corbenik" as before (it was capitalised, wasn't it?)

But it should say .Skeith

 

[chaoskagami]

There's just too many options to justify that anymore, sadly. It's like...say Mozilla built firefox with every possible combination of --enable and --disable. There would be at least 200 builds of it.

Minor nitpick.

I don't care much about that, hah. The reason is that now the software name is sourced from autotools - which is always 'corbenik'. I should probably make that uppercase. The Skeith branding will return eventually, but it's a silly visual thing that doesn't impact any functionality. It's not exactly high on my priorities (same as the screen garbage on reinit.)

Oh, also, under the Chainloading menu, "Corbenik" appears. It's kind of annoying x.x

I copy a backup copy of Corbenik itself to the boot/ dir. Partially in case people overwrite it somehow. If that's not desirable, I'll just not do that.

EDIT: Disabled in Makefile.am. Next Skeith won't come with that. :|

soooo I just deleted all of my corbenik and skeith files on accident. ughh now to remember how to setup corbenik again

Ow. How did you manage that?

Just copy it to the SD and run one of the lazy firmware fetching scripts if you have a posix shell and wget.

I have absolutely no idea what I did. lol.

sooo data migration stopped working for some reason. x.x

Ok, found the issue. PMing you about it, @chaoskagami ,it's quite important.

Don't ask me. I'm not the one coding the updater. :/

Saw edit, sure, okay. PM.

I noticed when Corbenik is not present in the "boot" folder, that the latest build can not boot. Makes sense, but it also means that it appears in the chainload menu since it seems chainloads are stored there.
Would it be possible to separate those two again?

Uh, no. That doesn't make sense at all.

Whether or not I copy arm9loaderhax.bin to /corbenik/boot/Corbenik folder has no effect whatsoever (and I state this as a fact.) It never gets touched unless it's selected under the chainloader menu. Unless you bring up the chainloader menu, that's completely irrelevant and shouldn't cause *any* issues.

I'll look into this in the morning, although I'm doubtful I'll be able to reproduce it (and now the stable is now put off for another day. :/ )

 

[Gray_Jack]

undefined references to `ctr_interrupt_set' follow
corbenik-screeninit.o: In function `screen_mode':

I'm having this error when I try to compile the last commit corbenik, using Linux, I have everything needed (following the redme), ctrulib and devkitARM updated.

Sorry to bother you all again, 'cause I am the only one using corbenik always having compiling issues

 

[laharl22]

Can i copy new folders over previous skeithfw for update?

 

[The Catboy]

Uh, no. That doesn't make sense at all.

I'll update it again and see what happens. I was having other issues, but I am starting to think they might be related to my microSD reader.

Love the new Unix like directory structure BTW

Wish we could use it for the whole system, sans symlinks...
