Hi apoklyps3

* we have needed some inputs/outputs Smilie

could you write what you did ( commands and outputs ) ?
where did you extract to unpack the firmware ? ( external stroage ? )
can you see the images/files as separately ( bootloader/kernel/rootfs and the others.. )
do you have the orginal firmware image outside the flash ?

* i can try search your hardware but i cannot find any usefull infos.

so i have to learn this :

your device chip details
your flash chip details
cat /proc/mounts ( and fstab ? )
cat /proc/mtd
have you any tools ? ( flash_erase / nandwrite ... )
( can you list the your binaries related flash that you have .. )
what is your boot-loader ? any screen output releated booting ?
can you execute the boot-loader commands ( so is there any prompt ? )
can you paste the dmesg or /var/log/messages files ?
did you try the plug in the usb drive and kernel see it ? ( like /dev/sdaX )
are there any kernel configs ( /proc/configXX , /boot/config* )

       pxfw -d DEVICE [-e] [-r] [-t] [-v]

DESCRIPTION

       pxfw is the linux firmware flasher for Plextor CD and DVD drives.  Remove any disks before flashing.

FEATURES

       You can flash the firmware of these drives:
       Plextor Premium, Premium-2, PX-712, PX-716, PX-755 and PX-760.

DEVICE

       can be an IDE, SCSI, SATA, USB or FireWire connected optical drive. Not all SATA controller support all Plextor features.

       Linux:
       /dev/hdX: IDE device
       /dev/scdX: Linux 2.4: SATA, SCSI, USB device, or IDE device via ide-scsi emulation
       /dev/srX: Linux 2.6: IDE device via new ATA layer, SCSI or USB device

       OpenBSD/NetBSD:
       /dev/rcdX

       FreeBSD:
       /dev/cd: SCSI device

       -if  select inputfile. Specify the firmware binary file, which should
	    be written to DEVICE.

       -u   proceed update. When the firmware checksum test has succeeded,
	    write firmware to DEVICE.

       -f   force flashing. Even if DEVICE is not recognized, or firmware.
	    checksum has failed, firmware writing will be forced.
	    Handle with care.

       -e   read EEPROM from DEVICE.

       -r   reboot the device.

       -t   test which opcodes are supported by the device.

       pxfw -d /dev/hdc -if 755_1.07.bin -u
       writes firmware file 755_1.07.bin into Master Drive on Secondary IDE-Port.

       pxfw -d /dev/sr3 -e -oe file.foo
       reades EEPROM from device /dev/sr3 and writes it to file.foo.
