Hello,

I'm using owfs to read/write the EEPROM of DS2436 and DS2433 devices.
Mostly, this works nice and without problems. However, sometimes wrong
data is stored on the EEPROM.

I'm wondering what is the correct procedure to read/write form/to an
EEPROM. Is it sufficient to use write() and write 32 bytes for example
to pages/page.0? Are there any status information if the last write()
was successful? Is owfs doing any checks of CRC and sends messages
again to the device or do I have to implement this on my own?

It would be nice to verify the written data by reading them back, but
it seems to be useless because of the caching mechanism of owfs. I
know about the "uncached" directory, but reading from there makes owfs
stop working.

I can imagine the communication will be more reliable if it is slower.
I'm using the w1 kernel driver. Is there an option to change the speed
of the bus? Maybe when building owfs?

thanks in advance

Timo
