Hi, XxXx,
It's glad to know that MGB100 is interesting for you.
1. I am sorry to tell you,
YES, you are right,
the recovery mode is depended on working kernel.
If you changed the kernel source then built your own version,
you would never enter our recovery mode again.
2. I can't give you the way about how to connect any JTEG or Console,
sorry.
3. I can't give you the settings-block and flash ROM structure, either.
This is the private infomation of our company....
May I know why do you want to write something into the flash ROM?
Since you have the whole HDD for stroge,
why don't you enable a telnet daemon inside busybox,
and try to run some programs from HDD?
If you don't want some other applications, just kill them in rc file.
I thought that would be more easily.
Regards,
Lily.
