Just reviving an old thread, so it's fair to say full PCM cloning is still not possible to gain access below 0x10000?
I was working on something but had put it on ICE, I may revisit this again.

hjtrbo has been chasing this pretty hard too & the answer was "It's not possible".

I've heard rumours of it been done. Nothing public obviously. Needs a case split open and some reversing

Agree, need to figure out what chip its on first, then look at what it'll take to program it. May need to be removed from the pcm, or maybe not. Or maybe a custom kernel will be able to do it, but nobody has written such a thing and made it known yet. Maybe there is a debug port of some type on the PCB and something like usbjtagnt with a custom config might be able to do it. They are the likely options.

I did reach out to the ulink dev. He was confident of access via BDM. That was under the presumption we were dealing with a MPC565 processor

The rumour I heard was it was been done without splitting the case open. If true, it must be possible to get it into a boot mode or similar via the external case pins.
