binwalk-extract
Firmware image extraction with binwalk and firmware-mod-kit — recursive archive carving, squashfs/jffs2/ubifs mounting, entropy analysis to detect packed/encrypted regions, and nested container handling. Entry point for all static filesystem analysis after a raw binary image is acquired.

# Firmware Extraction with binwalk
> Turn a raw binary image into a navigable filesystem tree.
> binwalk handles most common containers; firmware-mod-kit covers
> special-case squashfs variants; manual mounting handles the rest.
## Prerequisites
- Raw firmware binary (from `firmware-acquisition` skill).
- Tools: `binwalk` (≥ 2.3), `sasquatch` (non-standard squashfs decompressor),
`jefferson` (JFFS2 extractor), `ubireader` (UBI/UBIFS), `mtd-utils`,
`firmware-mod-kit` (FMK), `7-zip`, `lzma`, `xz-utils`.
```bash
