hi!
first, i've got a big problem with my s10. too long to tell again, you can read here
s10 won't get alive after deleting the partition
i have a few questions about principles of flash firmware:
1. where does it sit in player's memory and (how) can it be accessed?;
2. can it potentially be damaged by deleting the partition from player?;
3. if it doesn't see the *.hex update file, does it mean it's damaged, or maybe the problem is in some kind of wrong formatting? (say, cluster size or whatever)
4. if it is damaged, how can it still boot to say "file system is damaged format the device"? [note, formatting to fat using both comand-line and via iriver plus won't help]
thanks, would like to hear some pro's say...
