For people that has a Gameboy Advanced, here's little success story

After getting a GBA with a Flash2Advanced 256Mb Rom Card I thought I was stuck with my old windows computer.

Not until I found f2a/if2a (Flash2Advanced 4 Linux) I saw that there was a possibility to do it in linux.

After allot of tryouts I finally found out how to work with it.

For it all to work I had to get EzUSB2131 and after reading the readme on how it worked I got hotplug to mount the GBA in /proc/ezusb/ as dev4.

In if2a there's a usb.c file that is compiled for the gba to be at dev0 so I also had to change that

and recompile it

After that it's been working great. I've been able to successfully burn roms to the cart!

Starfall - your Success Story on the GamBoy Advanced seems to be ideal for our LinuxAnswers section.

Would you be willing to submit it? It would be of help to the site and to the rest of our membership if you would do so (it would also put your instructions in a prominent place for anyone searching for it ).

If you are willing to do so, read this link on submitting an Answer beforehand.

Thanks.
