Ok, being able to use FASM for ARM processors is a big step towards being able to do what I want. Thanks for the link.
What about disassembling? I think IDA can disassemble for ARM processors, but I'm looking for free tools if they exist. Then I think the next step would be to figure out how the firmware is stored. I'm assuming more is present than just code, but I'm not sure how to go about figuring out the format. |

you can look here, but not sure there are disassembers listed for ARM.

Nope. None of the lists like that seem to have anything for ARM. I couldn't find any free ones with Google either.

I am porting my OS to arm (including DS) with fasmarm and it works very well, as for disassemblers most DS emulators have them built in.

pelles C has suport for ARMs, no idea what it has. also there is "free" (I think) "embedded visual C" by microsoft

To do anything like get button press, change mode etc, is as simple as read or writing differant bits, at a certain address. But to run you code you get a M3 Adapter that lets you use a CF card, this is formated fat, So all you need is a card reader on your PC to add your OS. To run code on a DS is harder, you need a thing called a passme, with this you can run as is ( must have a real game in it) or you can flash your firmware. I am also porting my OS to gp2x, which is also arm for this i am using a boot loader called u-boot http://u-boot.sourceforge.net/ Heres my setup http://www.dex4u.com/etc/DS.jpg Heres a screenshot of using X86 Dex4u OS to debug Dex4u OS ARM port (gp2x) http://jas2o.forthworks.com/dexforum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=142.0;attach=80;image See here for simple GBA program: http://board.flatassembler.net/topic.php?t=4191&start=160 |
