# Biooosless
Tl;dr read from floppy in 32bit protected mode with no BIOS, using PMIO. Your shellcode gets pasted into seabios.
# Intended solution
Write a floppy disk driver that does DMA. Output the flag using VGA MMIO
# My solution
1. Floppy disk
- Too stupid and lazy to learn about floppy disk, know remote hardware is always QEMU -> hack seabios to log all in/out instructions, copy paste them into shellcode.- In/out not working -> add usleep() everywhere, shellcode magically starts working- Final `in` instructions seems to return flag bytes -> Ignore DMA and use completely idiotic solution that works
2. Outputting the flag
- Too stupid and lazy to read docs and figure out VGA -> copy paste QEMU ACPI shutdown.- Use as timing side channel for time-based blind boolean exfil. Binary search on flag chars- Side channel is slow and unreliable -> babysit the brute force and guess words manually to speed it up
