well... that didnt work, it does absolutely nothing when i try to read or 
write from /dev/scd0

is there another way to get information from the stick? load some other 
modules, dump the physical contents (that i can play with it's partition 
table maybe) or modify something in usb.handmap or so, to make it possible to 
dump the chipcontents?

the data still has to be there... i just need to find a way to read its 
bits/bytes!, no matter what the stick says. i'm thinking very lowlevel 
even ;)

i don't like giving up (not until i've disassembled the piece of cr*p ;)) to 
its most basic components! :)

anyone???
