Cooker gurus, please help,

For a while I was strugling with a friends Sony Vaio laptop with Transmeta processor and some kind of crapified ALI chipset that was dying at boot on Mkd 9.0 and cooker, now I was able to recompile a 2.4.20 kernel de-ALIfied, mount the network.img disk, replace the existing vmlinuz and generate a small bootable CD from it ( to make thing crappyer this laptop don't have a floppy, also and the CD-ROM is some kind of FireWire that only leaves the network install path open), to our nice surprise the thing booted OK and then failed to load the network module ( 8139too) due the expected unresolved symbols.
OK then I've mounted the network.rdz system image and then abruptly stopped, the modules are compressed with some kind of an archiver that I don't know and the archive extension is .mar !!!, I've never heard of it, can a guru of you help me with a indication or pointer to overcome that, we are anxious to see that little noty with Cooker on it and #mdk-cooker is dead :(


Thank you,

Mircea C.
