<h2>About the hardware</h2>
|

2002-03-28 14:28:17 +00:00
|
|
|
<p>I wrote a <a href="internals/bjorn.html">"dissection" page</a> some months ago,
|
2002-03-27 09:25:09 +00:00
|
|
|
showing the inside of the Archos and listing the main components.
|
|
|
|
|
I have also collected a couple of <a href="docs/">data sheets</a>.
|
2002-03-28 14:28:17 +00:00
|
|
|
Also, don't miss the <a href="notes.html">research notes</a>
|
|
|
|
|
from my reverse-engineering the firmware.

<h2>About the software</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-07-24 12:55:51 +00:00
|
|
|
<p>The player has one version of the firmware in ROM.
|
2002-03-27 09:25:09 +00:00
|
|
|
The first thing this version does after boot is to look for a file called
|
2002-07-24 12:55:51 +00:00
|
|
|
"archos.mod" on the Player/Studio or "ajbrec.ajz" on the recorder in the
|
|
|
|
|
root directory of the harddisk.
|
2002-03-27 09:25:09 +00:00
|
|
|
If it exists, it is loaded into RAM and started.
|
2002-07-24 12:55:51 +00:00
|
|
|
This is how firmware upgrades are loaded. Note that you can revert to the ROM
|
|
|
|
|
version by just deleting the firmware file.
