unable to read config index 0 descriptor/start: -75 (hangs after PATCH stage)

[theoparis]

I have been trying to use gaster on linux with an old ipad 4. sudo dmesg | bat prints the following.

88   │ [39614.655352] apple-mfi-fastcharge 1-6: device descriptor read/8, error 2
2189   │ [39614.785556] apple-mfi-fastcharge 1-6: device descriptor read/8, error -75
2190   │ [39614.890103] apple-mfi-fastcharge 1-6: USB disconnect, device number 31
2191   │ [39615.018307] usb 1-6: new high-speed USB device number 32 using xhci_hcd
2192   │ [39615.167018] usb 1-6: device descriptor read/all, error 2
2193   │ [39615.302051] usb 1-6: new high-speed USB device number 33 using xhci_hcd
2194   │ [39615.450597] usb 1-6: device descriptor read/all, error 2

Gaster seems to have gotten to the PATCH stage and then hangs on waiting for usb handle forever.

Haven't had any more luck on my ipod 6th gen either 😢

By the way, do you happen to know if project sandcastle, or more specifically, PongoOS would work with irecovery?
I am actually trying to see if I can get it to work with the latest linux kernel. I already tried just using PongoOS with checkra1n (didn't work) but then I found this tool and it's open source unlike checkra1n... If this ends up working I will post my current progress on my repository here:
