Hey all,
have this ebook reader Iriver cover story for some time now.
would like to hack it, since it 's a linux based system.
however, when attaching the device to a usb port, can only access the disks, the local drive (sdc) and the attached sd card (sdd).
not the OS itself.
would like to access the place where the firmware is installed.
have downloaded the firmware and extracted it from *.hex to a *.zip en then to a fully tree directory.
but would like to see it when it is working on the device itself.
it could give me an insight into what uses what and how from startup to running the file sequence.
have tried everything on this page
http://vanderwijk.info/blog/hacking-the-iriver-story-eb02-e-reader/but it can only get me so far.
when typing dmesg in bash terminal on my laptop
this is my result;
