I modified this to use ssh instead of netcat.

At the 0xFFFF stage I got a nice warning:
"WARNING: the rootfs extraction on n800 is known to be buggy! feedback
is welcome."

I pressed 'Y', and 0xFFFF proceeded to dump 16M of my rootfs. No more.
The fs isn't mountable, as far as I can tell.

Any ideas?
