How about this one? http://wiki.laptop.org/images/b/bd/Extract.txt It gets the main firmware only. To fetch boot2, you either need to use symbols (88W8385 driver) or dump the eeprom (88W8388). For an 88W8388 eeprom, boot2 length is at 0x0004 and boot2 offset (or "other junk" length) is at 0x0008. Both are 32-bit. An eeprom image may be byte-swapped. > I intend to get some small part of it working this weekend - probably > the LED as a proof of concept - before starting on the real wireless > code.
