The flash savearea is 128 * 8 = 1024 bits in size. Hijack "hijacks" 64 of those bits, and could be kicked out at any time if the Rio player software ever claims those bits (looking more likely by the day..).

Cheers

So maybe it's time to think about that "raw writes to a file on the disk while mounted read-only" strategy you have on your to-do list?

Someday soon. But that doesn't help with the data that MUST be read before the config.ini file can be read in (most of the bits)..

True... That's a dilly of a pickle...

Is this working for you now with the latest Hijack kernel?

Okay, I'll bump up the timeout some more for v168. Once we get a timeout that works for you, it should be fine.

Still no dice...you think maybe you could build me a special image with a rediculously large delay and we can see if that solves the problem? I'm thinking maybe the delay isn't in the right place.
