DS development > DSi internal and external SD card storage

#178000 - nocash - Fri Jul 12, 2013 2:25 pm

Another newbie DSi question: Is there anything known about its internal 256MB FLASH storage, or about its external SD card storage? I/O ports, transfer protocol, filesystem, and so on.

As far as I know, they are both controlled by the ARM7, and only either one can be accessed... so they are [probably] using the same transmission protocol?

Is it possible to boot executables from that memory? And if yes... then it does probably require some encryption or authentication to prevent piracy?
