You need to extract the getkernels script from the compressed file:
tar zxvf getkernels.tar.gz Its outputs are kernel images. Not the partition images you mention. Those backup images must be created separately using dd. Last edited by geekmaster; 10-21-2012 at 10:50 AM. |

Thread includes step-by-step instructions. Kernel and initramfs for a sampling of all devices attached to thread. Since you don't mention a firmware version, I guess whichever one(s) I extracted for the K3 are what you want. |

Both the kernel (embedded) .config and the initramfs are attached to that post. Enjoy. |
