So this is somewhat related... who is the manufacturer of that chip with the "fighting crab" logo sitting in about the middle of the device?
I know the one you're talking about. That was a Realtek ( http://www.realtek.com.tw/ ) chip. I had taken a closeup of this chip with the intentions of looking up its function later, but the picture didn't turn out. I'm ass-uming that this is ether the ethernet controller or the 802.11b controller (likely the former).
I think I can see the RAM in the device, but where is the "disk on chip" chip? I suppose there are plenty of ways to make an embedded Linux device, but I've usually seen some kind of disk on chip device.
Dunno yet. My closeups were all garbage. I went through and took extreme closeups of all of the chips in there thinking I'd look at them on a nice big monitor instead of real size. The macro function on my digital camera stinks though. None of them turned out. I'll open it back up and either get better pictures with another camera, or just make notes of what is in there.
Neato project, though.
I hope so. :-) My biggest fear is flashing a dud image on there and not having a way to flash a known good one back on again, so I need to figure out whether it is possible or not to flash with an attached SRAM card or something strictly through hardware.
