unpack

This is a simple program that can be used to unpack/examine firmware files.

It understands three types of files:

  • A NetXfer-style firmware file
  • A file "bundle"
  • An nk.bin file

Usage

unpack [-l] file

where:

-l  Means just list what you find. Do not create any files

When presented with a standard firmware file it will split it out into its three components of loader, bios and bundle. These are named payload0, payload1 and payload2.

With a 'bundle' it is split into the individual files within the bundle.

Looking at an nk.bin file is probably of no interest to you, but was useful in checking that makebootp was building nk.bin files in the right format.
