Nope, It should work fine by now.
Could you post the full error messages in "nspire linux questions"?

Do you use defconfig as kernel?
tangrs didn't enable CONFIG_LBDAF, so you can't mount ext4 r/w.

The kernel on tiplanet does not work. It mounts the rootfs as read-only
Corrupted download I think. Which image do you use? X and booting from flashdrive?

I haven't had very much time lately, but X still does not work for me. I am getting an error like fatal server error: no screens found. I probably just havent enabled the right setting in the kernel.
You don't need to change anything, if you can see the framebuffer-console everything is set up correctly.
Do you have the latest kernel and rootdisk? What calculator are you using?

Ok, I'll try to get an image of the "filesystem?".

Edit: Heh
There were at least 3 discussions about linux before you began working on it :D

@Vogtinator, we could use this to write a read-only filesystem driver for FlashFX and Reliance? http://ourl.ca/99835
I already added this page to my favourites three days ago ;)
The part about reliance is useless, "INOD" is actually just a tiny part of the whole:
http://ftp.icpdas.com/pub/beta_version/WinPac-8000/flashfx/dcl/common/loader/reliance/dlrelcore.h
Sadly they use FlashFX Tera instead of FlashFX Pro 3.0, but vfbdump.c seems to support both.

Daniel, you forgot to add include/linux/mtd/nspire_cx_nand.h :(

Just emailed you something that may be of interest. Linux doesn't run on nspire_emu right now though
I read it, but seems to be not very useful :-(

I also added MTD partitions into the mix so you can dump your boot2 and diags via Linux if you really wanted to
Could you implement one for the filesystem, too?
I'd experiment a bit with flashfx support. (Which seems to be harder than reliance)

The worst that can happen is that I have to reinstall the OS
Actually (but not very likely) you could damage boot2 if you write to the wrong bytes.

Now, how should I test write support without killing it?
Use nspire_emu, even I wasn't able to brick it ;-)
If it works, test it on real hardware (Please do it, I don't want to brick mine :-) )
We really need to get linux running with nspire_emu, that would make thing
a lot easier

I don't want to lose my loved boot2 ;)
Does is work in nspire emu?
You could easily compare the image with your bytes read.

Isn't the boot2 programmed into the nand?
How does it get loaded then? Would boot1 be easier to rev-eng if it needs to access the flash?

Is partitioning possible at all?
I think the size is hardcoded in boot2 and we can't change it?
Maybe boot2 just checks the filesystem and we format it manually :/

maybe it has some kind of unlock sequence
That'd be visible in nspire_emu's code

Found three patents: (wikipedia)
^ United States Patent 5860082: "Method and apparatus for allocating storage in a flash memory."
^ United States Patent 6260156: "Method and system for managing bad areas in flash memory."
^ United States Patent 7284101: "Reliable file system and method of providing the same."
Hmm.. Read only support would be possible..

FlashFX is patented, only the wear-leveling, so we can use it read-only?

FlashFX has drivers for NAND controllers itself, maybe you can find the correct one, if TI didn't have to implement it themselves.

Why should we need to reverse-engineer it?
We have the source code! (And it works, could confirm it with an hexeditor)

Doesn't the Wii have an external chip to emulate a GC?
If so, Wii >> GC (Yes, Wii shifted right GC bits)

Edit: Does the WiiU still have this?

the Wii hardware is on-par with the GameCube
Wii = GC = PS2?
