A simple tool to extract JFFS2 image files
jffs2extract
A simple tool to extract JFFS2 image files. Currently only tested on Mac OS X. Based on code ripped out from the mtd-utils project.
The reason I put this together is to simplify batch extracting JFF2 images without having to rely on kernel support.
Use it like the standard tar
command.

Known issues
- This project is very immature, so bugs can be expected. Use it at your own risk.
- Does not extract special files.
- Does not extract metadata (file modes, date/times, owners, ...)
- Filename specification is limited: No pattern matching, no dup checking (i.e. wrong algorithm compared with tar).
