Any chance of getting this to work with the DS-Linker?

They have released the source for FAT etc:

It already works.

Are you sure you are not confusing DS-Linker with DSLink? I could not find a DLDI driver for the DS Linker anyway:

Yeah, you're right, I was.

So as it's a new card, someone will have to write a DLDI for it. But it's not going to be me, I'm working on ScummVM, not flash card drivers.

It's just a thought, but why did you buy pretty much the only card not compatible with homebrew if you wanted to run homebrew?

I wasnt really aware of scummvm when I made the purchase unfortunately

i've the ds linker, and scummvm is working fine with de DLDI version patched with MK5 file.

but, savegames and the scumm ini aren't stored

Makes sense since the MK5 driver only supports reading atm.

Write support for DS Linker is on the way...

"the MK5 DLDI write will release around 1 week."

can the firmware for the mk5 be used for the dslinker?

Yeah it should work, the cards are identical.

Just to verify, it does indeed work. Just flashed my DS Linker with MK5 firmware with 0 problems. Much prettier wallpaper as well
