I think I can try to modify tools/lib/images/system.img file to achieve this - the simple way I see is to mount it on my local system in write mode, put modified files to it, unmount and boot emulator with modified image. Will this way work at least in theory?
On practice, I even can't mount it: sudo mount -o loop,offset=32256 -t yaffs2 system.img ./tmp/ mount: unknown filesystem type 'yaffs2' On Dec 21, 2:14 pm, fry <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello, > > I'm trying to upgrade firmware in emulator or some parts inside it.
