Well, I spent the sunday trying to find a way to get this information
but wasn't able to run anything else or find any jtag points I could
use. Anyone with contacts inside Samsung can find more information? ;)
I would really love to dump this damn windows ce 5 from it but I can't
find a starting point...
I'm thinking very hard of trying any sort of ready-to-run distro created
for a basic AU1200 board and try to load on the frame using the firmware
update option on it just to see what happens. Is there such thing as a
ready-to-run kernel+rootfs I can load on a USB key?
