Sandisk Sansa e200R

<< < (14/17) > >>

Bagder:
Hey, there's now a "Plan B" (http://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2007/09/03/mrhs-take-on-e200r/) suggested for those e200R owners who wants more adventure in their lives:

krazykit:
This is on a Rockbox'd e250:


--- Code: ---proto% /sbin/fdisk -l /dev/sdc

Disk /dev/sdc: 2010 MB, 2010120192 bytes
62 heads, 62 sectors/track, 1021 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 3844 * 512 = 1968128 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdc1               1        1011     1942270+   b  W95 FAT32
Partition 1 has different physical/logical beginnings (non-Linux?):
     phys=(0, 8, 12) logical=(0, 8, 20)
Partition 1 has different physical/logical endings:
     phys=(241, 212, 35) logical=(1010, 42, 12)
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sdc2            1011        1022       20480   84  OS/2 hidden C: drive
Partition 2 has different physical/logical beginnings (non-Linux?):
     phys=(241, 212, 36) logical=(1010, 42, 13)
Partition 2 has different physical/logical endings:
     phys=(244, 97, 45) logical=(1021, 20, 52)
Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary.
--- End code ---

If you need it on a player without Rockbox, I can remove Rockbox when I get back in a few hours.

GodEater:
To summarise :


--- Code: ---Model  Heads   Sectors  Cylinders  Size
e250   62      62       1021       2010120192
e250r  213     35       512        1989148672

--- End code ---

The difference being about 20MB - the size of the hidden partition on the non-R series...

chrisjs169:
Bagder, linuxstb, and GodEater all saw me on IRC, but we were able to convert the e200 to an  e200R (with the R bootloader) and, using e200tool, were able to convert it back.  In other words, the same thing that MrH did back in March, except this (for the most part) was for testing Plan B, which didn't seem to work.

GodEater:
...and by "didn't work" chrisjs169 means :

The patched R bootloader froze his sansa on start up.

(assuming I interpreted his actions properly whilst reading them in IRC).
