That would be 8 Megahalfnibbles. :)
It's 1 MB. Mind that I have only tested the code with a 4 MBit (512 kB)
stick.

Not as such. I have conceived these tools by first ripping the original
MB image the stick is delivered with using a self-written multiboot
client, taking a long hard look at the disassembly, figuring how to
access the stick, ripping the raw data and comparing it with the
decrypted MB image to figure out the encryption algorithm.

Yes. I do not provide any binaries to make sure people read the README
and especially the disclaimer it contains.

Hi! ... Yes. That's exactly what smsflash does. ... I do own a flash cart, but I have not used it during development. All you really need is an MBV2 cable. ......
