| 13:13.32 | troulouliou_div2 | hi is there a good forum to post about reverse engineering board ? |
| 13:13.54 | troulouliou_div2 | i m facing a weird board here with some kind of 2 OS running in it |
| 14:08.47 | wmat | troulouliou_div2: you can try the discussion mailing list, but I can't guarantee anyone will be able to help. Alternatively, you can try asking here. |
| 14:29.50 | troulouliou_div2 | wmat, i m reversing a box atm that has a redboot bootloader in charge of loading a linux like system from a jffs2 and squashfs partition |
| 14:30.37 | troulouliou_div2 | once the OS is loaded i can connect to it through UART anfd get root, when i type netstat -ltnu i can see swome listening port but when i do an nmap i see 2 additional port 9000 and 9119 |
| 14:30.59 | troulouliou_div2 | when i do a telnet on the 9000 port i get a redboot prompt |
| 14:31.28 | troulouliou_div2 | from this redboot prompt the output from version command is different then the one from the main bootloader |
| 14:31.58 | troulouliou_div2 | so it seems that there is a second OS / bootloader or whatever that lives in the soc and not ont the SPI flash and listen to addition TCP port |
| 14:32.01 | troulouliou_div2 | is it common ? |
| 14:43.24 | wmat | it's been ages since i touched redboot |
| 14:44.10 | wmat | it usually has a bootscript |
| 14:45.55 | wmat | type fconfig at the redboot prompt and see what it spits out |
| 14:46.50 | troulouliou_div2 | wmat yes but the version string in the bootloader and the version string in the redboot prompt whjen the OS is launched is not the same |
| 14:46.59 | troulouliou_div2 | and the subset of commands neither |
| 14:47.15 | troulouliou_div2 | there really is a second redboot living oin the same time as the OS |
| 14:47.49 | troulouliou_div2 | from the redboot doc it seems like normally this should be enable only by adding/removing a jumper on the ecos main specification . |
| 14:48.02 | troulouliou_div2 | still i don't get how those both can live together |
| 14:48.19 | troulouliou_div2 | it mean that somehow the redboot os has access to the ip configured oin the ethernet controler .. |
| 14:53.56 | wmat | sorry, that's about all i know |
