This is a member of the [[:/dev/fs]] file structure. It contains miscellaneous content that does not follow a common sharing mechanism the way [[:/shared1]] does, and acts as an overflow root directory. [[Revolution OS]] seems to have a function for opening files that denies access to this directory from [[Broadway]] user code, but files can still be directly opened with IOS_Open.+ + + + + +

+'''/shared2''' is a general purpose directory used as a shared savefile-like space, much like how [[:/shared1]] holds shared title contents. It was probably created later in the Wii's development, since some shared files are instead in the [[System Menu]]'s savefile ([[:/title/00000001/00000002/data]]).
−The NAND SDK library seems to deny access to /shared2 through the main <code>OpenFile</code>, although a separate function (<code>OpenFilePrivileged</code>) exists without this restriction, and due to the lack of memory protection in [[Revolution OS]], <code>OpenFilePrivileged</code> can be freely called.
A quick (and incomplete) overview of the containing folders:
A quick (and incomplete) overview of the containing folders:
−* [[/menu/FaceLib/RFL_DB.dat]] - this is the database-file where Mii's are stored
−[[/menu/FaceLib/RFL_DB.dat]] - this is the database-file where Mii's are stored
+* [[/sys/net/dhcp.dat]] - This file contains IP-addresses used by the Wii when connecting to the internet
−* [[/sys/NANDBOOTINFO]] - This file keeps state about what title was most recently launched by the System Menu.
−[[/sys/net/dhcp.dat]] - This file contains IP-addresses used by the Wii when connecting to the internet
+* [[/expired]] - contains something like a PlayTime-limit? (Reference: OSPlayTime.c - PlayTime: %d seconds left [found in mariokart-channel])
−* [[/test2/dvderror.dat]] - This file keeps track of disc drive errors
−[[/sys/NANDBOOTINFO]] - This file keeps state about what title was most recently launched by the System Menu.
