Hacking cIOS rev18 comming in about a week

[Pakatus]

Hope it wasnt the only copy of Source Code:

The 16GB SSD of my EeePC just died today

27 minutes ago from choqoK

With sneek released as open source, i could imagine a cioscorp like mod that does not modify any installed IOS nor installs a new one. But it replaces every dip module of the module based IOS with the backup one and loads IOS36 or IOS38 instead of the not module based IOS. That will allow to play all not import games to be played from disc channel.

sneek can already do this. search the code for the #define USB_HAXX. if you compile it with that flag, it will load the same DIP for every IOS that is loaded. it loads dip.bin from the sd card or something similar. that means just compile with this flag, put teh dip from a cIOS in the correct location on the sd card and thats it.

Luckily the disk didn't contain any important data. Right now I'm installing FreeBSD in it! about 1 hours ago from choqoK

...if I'm not mistaken. ES.c should be the correct file for this.

Not really random. I was correcting giantpune's reference.

Hmmm I'll have to compile it myself I guess. I hate DevKitPro because it hates me. ^^ Thanks for the hint giantpune.

per wanin

so cios18 is safe

I hope rev18 has support for NTFS on Usb loaders.

 

[lightyear]

I tried installing corp with showmii wads and sneek still only reads certain games. It seems it doesn't want to read the cios mod released for sneek either, so I can't even update it, assuming that's the problem

FAT support in USB/SD loader working. Forget about NTFS (last time I say it: I will NEVER add NTFS support). 5 minutes ago from choqoK

and what's the reason for that? didn't he say something like he thinks ntfs is shit and he doesnt support it?

 

[XFlak]

never say never! i think once/if ntfs support is perfected (which could take awhile by the sounds of things) eventually wanin may change his mind... but whether or not wanin does this, it does not change the fact that his work will always be very appreciated by me and many others

Are there any issues on the current ntfs LOADING? I don't care about being able to install games directly from from the loader, nor do i need covers. And if, can't they be loaded from sd?

Waninkoko only needs to implements oggzee's offset list or something similar and then:
- the module shrinks, which means there's more memory free for other stuff
- it will work on all filesystems(where homebrew exists to read files, currently wbfs, FAT and NTFS)
- it would support file replacement without modifying the .iso itself, ok much work, but possible

That won't happen too.

Seriously, I prefer adding reiser4 support rather than NTFS -.-

If you would move the filesystem to outside of the cIOS, you would have all at once. The way you are doing it produces a lot of work for you and results in a limited cIOS, your choice.

 

[MarioMadness]

please wanin add ext4 support instead of r4 support

i know alot of linux users would prefer to be able to use linux FS's

I would second that.

But I also would accept waninkokos decision.
Maybe we can hope he's releasing his cIOS also on his github...
