View Full Version : flawed instructions ?

one of the posts here details the method to retrieve the firmware files from the restore archive for 1.0.2 as :

dd if=694-5298-5.dmg of=ramdisk.dmg bs=512 skip=4 conv=sync

and then mount ramdisk.dmg

Unfortunately the skip=4 option to dd skips the first 4 blocks which hold crucial information for the resultant dump to be recognised as a dmg file and as a result, the ramdisk.dmg file cannot be mounted

It would be great if those who posted the instruction could extract the firmware files and post somewhere for a download.

thanks
