Where did you read that one couldn't program an f2a through
the mbv2 ? In any case, it is not the cable (either the mbv or
the flash advance linker) that programs the cart, it is the small
amount of code that is uploaded on the GBA that does the writing,
so there is no reason that you couldn't upload the appropriate
code using the mbv2.
