[Gc-linux-devel] Memory card block device

[David R. <da...@it...>]

Has any work, or thought, been put into creating a driver for the 
GameCube memory cards? I ordered a cheap 64 MB memory card, so that 
could be a very convenient source of a reasonable amount of persistent 
storage.

I have no experience of writing neither block device drivers, nor MTD 
drivers for Linux, so I'm unsure of what the best route is. If someone 
knows better, I'd love to listen and do the work.

There isn't that much to read about the memory card in the R.E. spec, 
but as far as I can discern (with my limited driver and hardware 
hacking knowledge) there aren't any gaping holes there. It should be "a 
simple matter of programming", right?

Unless someone else already did this, or planned to do it soon, I will 
make an attempt as soon as I receive all the necessary equipment.
