idrive file system

Hey All,

Did a little poking around at the "idrive hacking" posts. Besides the average microwave conversion jokes, I don't see anyone that has seriously tried to take a peek at the file system.

Anyone have luck either connecting directly, or removing the hard drive and popping it into an enclosure?

Yeah, I know...asking for trouble with the warranty..just curious.

First thread established the partition table and the fact it is running QNX, a unix like OS. Possibilities for doing anything interesting are probably limited without the source BMW used to build it.

Thanks! I should have searched deeper. I'll continue the chat there.
