Absolutely!

So...does anyone know if it is possible to update via. DVD discs?

I don't want to make a great big deal out o it, but one of the main reasons is simply convenience.

I guess I'm going to be that guinea pig with the Swiss flash to 16MB Picos :D

Re: Some help needed trying to get a working Shuriken Attack

It's probably possible but I haven't tested it because I only have Pico boards with 2MB flash. You need a different board to try it. Anyway, I simply don't see a point to program PicoBoot with Swiss. Especially because you will need an SD card anyway if you want to persist patches and settings. Ahh...

I'm not sure why would you want to run Swiss from PicoBoot directly? You still need SD adapter to preserve patches and settings. It's easier to update Swiss file on an SD card instead of having to flash PicoBoot via USB.
Wait, I thought you could flash Swiss directly onto the PicaBoot? :shock:

Re: Some help needed trying to get a working Shuriken Attack

I don't know, as I said I haven't tried it myself. If you feel like experimenting on your own then go for it. I need to fix the code and let Swiss be installed on the standard Pico board. Using 16MB board is hardly a solution to the issue with the code πŸ˜… Only doing so just in case Swiss expands to ...

Re: Some help needed trying to get a working Shuriken Attack

Many RP2040 boards are made with very similar components, just different layouts. I think it highly depends on the board you've chosen. I ordered a few different ones to test, they should be here next week. I wouldn't be concerned about different boards, especially with bigger flash. As soon as I f...

Re: Some help needed trying to get a working Shuriken Attack

It's more complicated than that, different boards have different flash chips so you need to compile PicoBoot with the appropriate bootstrap or it won't work. @webhdx Is this true? Because I would've thought that it's simply the same flash chip but with larger capacity, thus there wouldn't be anythi...

Re: Some help needed trying to get a working Shuriken Attack

You can flash Swiss directly to my modchip if you use different board. With Pico we are currently limited to ~512kB payloads. This is due to an issue that I couldn't resolve but quite possible it'd be fixed in the future then PicoBoot will be provided with Swiss instead of iplboot. That is very del...

Re: Some help needed trying to get a working Shuriken Attack

Someone wrote on one of his twitter posts about wanting to flash Swiss onto the chip since it's acting like an IPL Replacement, but he hasn't responded yet.

Does anyone know if this is a possibility?
