Hello everyone,

Apologies for repeating similar questions from OpenLF, if you frequent that also...

I have been looking at various tutorials and descriptions concerning Leapfrog devices (I am interested in LeapsterGS and LeapPad2) and I must say I am somewhat confused. For example, this one:

https://spiffyhacks.com/thread-814.html

shows preparing the system for the devices in buildroot from scratch. If that is so, what exactly do we need the Leapfrog supplied source files for and how do we use them?


Another issue I cannot figure out yet is how do you put the compiled system on the device? And how risky it is, i.e. if I mess up the compilation process (which is VERY likely), will I be able to bring back the device to life?
