Enough of that. I hope you find some of the information in this blog useful.
The Evan Brewer who was roomates w/ Brian @ SOU? I guess it was still SOSC then…
Indeed it is! I’ll catch up with you in email. Long time eh?
Hey Evan,
I read a little bit about you in a book called All The Rave. I have a myriad of questions I want to ask you. When you get a chance, could you shoot me an email?
Cheers,

Wasn’t this some hacking or programming website in the late 90’s? I recall something about how you choose the domain, as to mock a French friend who tried to say “elite”.
Hi B. Indeed el8.org once was a “security” related site. This is the same dmess0r who was once an active part of w00w00 and ADM. While those days are long gone, I still actively research and write various “security” related tools. These days I have a full-time job and family, so the amount of infosec work I do is at a minimum. There were many French friends in the “scene”, RawPowa and ndubee, to name a couple. Check out the “geek” and “academia” sections on this site for quick update on the sort of things I’ve been doing, or interested in.
Hi
Where did you get words for this paper? From your head???
Hi Chinaman. I don’t quite follow your question. Everything on this site either came from my brain or has credit given where credit is due. Make a bit more sense?
hi
did you ever figure out how to write raw data with the msr206? to write NOT iso format, only binary output (just to make the head to flux reversals the way you want, not iso)
thanks,

Hi Castor Troy,
I am getting closer on the raw data portion. Ultimately the commands which perform reads/writes produce very similar results. The only difference that I’ve seen so far between the card-data output from a ISO read versus a raw-data read is in a track length byte preceding the track-data. Once I nail the raw-data tools, I’ll produce another package including both iso and raw tools. I am not sure if the MSR206 command codes allow flux reversal control. One might be able to craft a payload which induces a custom flux reversal sequence. I’ll have to think about that one.
