Plane entertainment hacking…

On the flight to Amsterdam, for Euro OSCON and the Make Faire, there were entertainment devices in each seat, music, movies, games, etc…all on demand and all quite nice. Turns out, if you try hard, or if the system happens to crash at your seat, you can spot that it runs Linux and you might also get a free premium movie…On the way back, I’ll try and write up how to repeat it. Here’s a photo of the shell, wohoo! Link.
