Hi,
is there a way to access the file system of the head unit?
I'm not talking about music, I mean the entire file system containing configuration and system files.
Maybe via SSH port while the head unit is connected to my WiFi?
What about USB? I've heard of people loading shell scripts on a USB stick which were executed by the Civic (for reinstalling packages).

Has anyone ever achieved this?

I believe with your vehicle, go to the Home Screen on your head unit. Then, hold the brightness button (on the top of the head unit) + Audio + Menu until the hidden menu shows up.

I've already checked all options of the secret menu but none of them grants access to the file system. A command line tool would also be helpful
