Hello friends,

I have learning GPL compliance engineering recently, one instrument is used to extract unyaffs image, I would like someone to explain what are chunk size and spare size, can anyone help me? Thanks.

Hi:

I found chunk size:

Jun 22, 2011 – Chunk size is 4096 bytes in system.img. Spare size calculated to be 128 bytes.
