irrespective of the chaos communication congress in Berlin, it would be 
nice if you could offer a workshop in Munich ;)

I'm new to the gc-linux scene, but i really want to learn that things. 
Maybe you can give me some hints for the beginning.

I just bought a gamecube and got a broadband adapter from ebay.

Maybe you can tell me more about the other ways ? Btw, it should also 
work with the new Datel MAX Drive Pro, right ? Is it also working with 
the recently released (Oct,11.) MAX Drive ?

this is pretty much only a usb memory card.... maybe in combination with
the action-replay it can be used to run code, but i dont think anyone
has tried that yet. if that worked it would actually make it unnecessary
to have PSO or even the BBA (for short programs that fit on the memcard)

you can directly execute files from a memorycard with action-replay ?

but this would be more interesting to me: can you load and execute code 
with action-replay over the network without the use of PSO ?

...or which other possibilities than the PSO-method are there ?

yeah...read up on the gcdev forums.... in a nutshell, you make a cheatcode
to patch action replay itself so it loads code from a memory card

no, you need PSO to prepare the memcard for action replay once....or well,
you spend a week typing in endless colums of cheatcodes :o)

to date, none...like i said, you could get around it with a usb-memory card
and action replay, but afaik noone tested that yet

This version will be the one we have been waiting for.

Tmbinc made a kind of 'modchip' to allow loading code from an action
replay memory card. The website used to be http://debugmo.de/gc/gc.html,
but I don't seem to be able to access it right now. I started making
something the like: a 'modchip' with a parallel printer port connection
which loads code from a pc. Unfortunately, it's not stable enough to be
quite usable, and since I am not allowed to tell anyone the code I
extracted from the GC, I won't be able to publish it in a way that
others can contribute. Also, currently I unfortunately have very little
time to continue working on it
