EI_OSABI in syscall PPC_boot Hi, i'm actually trying to understand how the ios kernel works. I've notice that the EI_OSABI of the elf header checked in PPC_boot syscall is compared to the value 61. What is this value? I've tried to find it in specific elf for PPC specification, but indicated values doesn't match to 61. Edit: To add, the e_machine is set to ARM???!!!! This should be PPC no?

I've done some stuff reversing the code with IDA but i'm sure that some people has already reverse it before me (TT, you or other devs). So do you have any idb to share? It will help me to don't waste time on stuff already done by other devs.

To add, i haven't the time to update the wiibrew wiki, but if a can gain some time with an idb, i think i will also update the wiki to help the community.

Have a good day.

PS: sorry to put that in a forum post instead of a MP, but the MP seems broken....]]> arasium SoftwareTue, 07 Feb 2012 15:49:07 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?27,69491,69507#msg-69507 Re: EI_OSABI in syscall PPC_boothttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?27,69491,69507#msg-69507 arasium SoftwareFri, 03 Feb 2012 18:51:44 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?27,69491,69506#msg-69506 Re: EI_OSABI in syscall PPC_boothttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?27,69491,69506#msg-69506 tueidj SoftwareFri, 03 Feb 2012 18:02:42 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?27,69491,69491#msg-69491 EI_OSABI in syscall PPC_boothttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?27,69491,69491#msg-69491
