info.mk files from Blackberry


Hi all,

I wipe my forehead with a sigh of relief today because I found a way to back up my Blackberry 8800 under Linux. I'm also using Debian 4.0 Etch. I was able to mount it as a hard drive and see all the files and directories. This led me to wonder if there is a Linux program yet that can interpret info.mk files.

Any info will be a thrill!

Thanks all,

trox

The info.mk files appear to be bundled software that Blackberry uses to handle it's file system and applications. Don't know too much more than that about them. It definitely seems that they are zipped files because they are so small--usually less than 300k.
