Feb 03 18:05:55 <mne> Hi. Do you guys only do iphone stuff, or do you also deal with winCE devices ?
Feb 03 18:06:39 <mne> I'm currently reverse engineering a WinCE device and I would appreciate any help
Feb 03 18:19:26 <Marex_> mne: we did Palm handhelds
Feb 03 18:19:37 <Marex_> mne: you're porting linux to a wince device ?
Feb 03 18:22:47 <mne> lol, no
Feb 03 18:23:14 <mne> I extracted a few binaries out of the firmware image of a WinCE6 device
Feb 03 18:23:36 <mne> I also built my own WinCE6 image which is now running inside an emulator
Feb 03 18:24:04 <mne> What I'm trying to do now is copy the extracted binaries over to my emulated image an run/debug them there
Feb 03 18:24:17 <mne> ... in order to reverse engineer the files
Feb 03 18:24:59 <mne> At the moment one of the problems I came across is that only a few copied binaries work, while quite a lot of them just crash
Feb 03 18:25:36 <mne> Essentially, I tried to copy DLLs to my image and then use some custom code to call functions inside the DLL
Feb 03 18:25:58 <mne> Yet this only worked for a few DLLs. For instance zlib.dll worked, but others didn't
Feb 03 18:26:06 <mne> I assume this is because of the memory mapping
Feb 03 18:26:32 <Marex_> what was so funny about my question ?
Feb 03 18:28:29 <mne> It's just that I ported linux to a device some time ago. It took me about one year until everything was running. So I'm quite happy now that this time it shouldn't be that kind of a monster project ;)
Feb 03 18:29:18 <mne> So, any ideas with regard to the wince thing ?
Feb 03 18:29:46 <Marex_> I think it's stated clearly almost everywhere that this channel is focused to porting linux to Palm devices
Feb 03 18:30:00 <Marex_> maybe call microsoft support or something for this kind of thing
Feb 03 18:30:27 <mne> well, your website is down, so i had no idea what this channel is about
Feb 03 18:30:28 <Marex_> most of the people here make their living by porting linux to various devices now anyway
Feb 03 18:30:50 <mne> anyway, thanks for talking
Feb 03 18:31:11 <Marex_> well .. can't be helped, you need to search on
Feb 03 18:31:56 <mne> yep. So I'm outta here I guess. bye
