I agree that we should never remove working code. The DoC code never worked, sadly, and we instead were lucky enough to have mtd to use for read/write of DoC. parts.
Do you have a HOWTO or URL?
But DoC is mostly dead IMHO. M-systems never figured out the importance of open interfaces. Does anyone use DoC any more?
Well not really "use", but I do have some older GX1 systems in production here which do have DoC in them (which I currently don't use as I have no idea how to program them etc.).
I think I tried some mtd utils a few months back but without much success -- maybe bugs, maybe I just don't understand how this DoC stuff is supposed to work in general; it sure is a strange piece of proprietary hardware/software indeed. I read something about special closed-source DOS tools you need to "format" the thing first and whatnot...
