I use my N900 as a usb boot device for some Linux distro isos.
In order to do that i do
losetup /dev/loop1 <linux.iso>
/usr/sbin/osso-usb-mass-storage-enable.sh /dev/loop1
But strangly this is only working after i plugged in the usb port.
I get a G_FILE_STORAGE_READY and it simple works.
Even if i disconnect the usb and replug it it still works.
Investigating further
a reduced modified osso-usb-mass-storage-enable.sh:
losetup /dev/loop1 <image.iso>
/sbin/modprobe g_file_storage stall=0 luns=2 removable
echo "/dev/loop1">/sys/devices/platform/musb_hdrc/gadget/gadget-lun0/file
works pre plugged..
The /sbin/grep $MODE -e idle check seems strange..
Why is it checking this? is this dangerous?
I tried wirting too, but it seems unstable .. any info on this?
