Hi list,
I guess I'm not the first one who ever needed to retrieve data files from multifile images, those create by mkimage tool. However, I could just find scripts to do that (specially an old thread answered by Wolfgang about dd).
I made a patch to allow mkimage to extract files from images, which just works for multi-file image. But, the fact that nobody has ever done this means that this feature is not desired in the tool?
IMHO, it is very convenient to have a C code to do that, specially for embedded systems where scripting is noticeably slower than binary code. Besides it requires 'dd' to extract and another tool to parse file's offsets inside the image.
