Hi, I have a load of old Series 1 TiVo's that were based on Power PC.
They have SST39 EPROMS embedded and these EPROMS could be re-programmed with a native tool called getprom. I would like to use one of these units as a programming device to program the SST39's with different code using the hotswap method to switch SST39's over, leaving the original intact. I have experimented already and I've been able to reprogram the SST39 using the getprom tool, but it has checks in for the original format of the code, so I need a new tool like flashrom to properly reprogram the SST39's with foreign code (or non native code to the Tivo system. The only problem is, I don't have the ability to even try to compile flashrom for the TiVo environment. My question is, do you thing flashrom would do the job and if so, how would I go about getting a binary that would run on the IBM Power PC that is the core of the old S1 Tivo hardware? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Kind Regards Dave. _______________________________________________ flashrom mailing list [email protected] http://www.flashrom.org/mailman/listinfo/flashrom
