Of course PBL may provide some sort of software abstraction to 'convert' reads to a certain offset to a sector fetch & read from /that/.
According to the PBL API it does --- I need to investigate the disassembly and find out what's going on. (Ralph, I don't suppose you have your annotator script handy, do you?)
Am interested to know if PBL does this, if you manage to read any of the main ROM then let us know :)
Even at 100 Bps it would take just under 24 hours to download it all, and I was seeing 66 Bps when PBL was (attempting to) access the NAND flash --- which makes it 35 hours --- so I don't think I'll try that just yet. What I would like to do is to download the 8kB page containing the startup code, which will give me some space to play with custom code.
Provided I can work out how to reflash it, of course.
