Re: Can I read a disk's raw data, like in a hex editor?
As far as I can tell, Rev can't communicate directly with the hard disk without some form of external written to do so. On a slightly related note, I created a library that will create dynamically sized disk images that was to be used with Mark Schonewille's "Buttefly" project but a known bug in the DOS emulator would corrupt the disk image. - the ghost of sean _ Dont just search.

Can I read a disk's raw data, like in a hex editor?
I want to access it in Revolution instead of using somebody else's hex editor software If a Hex editor can "see" it, then Revolution can as well. But if the data stored on the card is not entirely printable text you need to specify that the data is binary.

Re: Can I read a disk's raw data, like in a hex editor?
The MMC card is hooked up via an internal memory card reader, and shows up an a drive to the computer. Is there a driver for Windows or Mac OS X that allows me to directly access a drive? Where is a place to find all the drivers installed on a system, and to find some documentation about them? The suggestion in the new Revolution documentation, reading the file /dev/tty , did not work on my iBook.

Re: Can I read a disk's raw data, like in a hex editor?
We are using a small PIC processor (a cheap, inexpensive device for embedded systems work) to talk directly with the MMC card. We are communicating directly via a serial port to the MMC card, and the data is being written directly to the card in a strange method that only shows up in a hex editor. We are not actually specifying a file on the formatted card with the PIC processor, but rather we are using the PIC processor to tell the MMC which sector we want to write 512 bytes of data. It is very low level and rough, but we seem to be writing some data to the card - and I want to access it in Revolution instead of using somebody else's hex editor software. How does the operating system access the direct bits off a card? And how could Revolution do it? Hopefully this email clarifies my problem some, please ask if you want more clarification. - Karl On Apr 8, 2006, at 12:51 PM, Jim Ault wrote: I am confused.
