this has been already answered, but as people don't know how to use search in the forums apparently, then here is the recap:

flasher -u can decompres bin, unlzo http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...48#post1043548 can convert rootfs to ext4, you can get files out of there

you just have to use a version of flasher which still has that option (like maybe 3.5) ;-)

you can repack, but without master OEM signing key you cannot create an image that can be flashed to the device.

So in short you can extract, but you cannot repack.

i know you are some kind of Nokia dev, so at this stage that Meego is dead for Nokia, would it be possible to get that "keys" to build our own CFW???
