Um, sure but that was the starting point of this thread, as we're
talking of F2A cards :

http://www.devrs.com/gba/files/mbv2faqs.php#FlashSupport

Does anybody have more info on why the MBV2 firmware
would support FA but not F2A ? Has anybody even tried
to write to an F2A from a GBA program ? It is obviously
possible but I wonder if there has been some kind of
protocol change between the FA and the F2A.

Any pointers to code or doc would be much appreciated.

Cheers,
--Jonathan
