AXFS (Advanced XIP File System) is a compressed read only file system for linux, Currently developed by Numonyx. It is used for the initrd in the 2nd Generation Cameras. 

It appears to be a bit out of date in terms of support these days and only supports 2.6 kernels.

Due to there not appearing to be an unpacker readily available i have built one in python

**THIS IS HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL**

This requires to be run as root as it creates device files and will most likely only work on unix systems and will extract into a folder called output,

It requires the initrd image to be called initrd.img and in the same directory as the python script (This will be a command line option when i get a bit of time to add this, Also will make a customisable output directory and will have it not create the device files and give a warning if its not run with EUID=0

**WARNING: USE AT YOUR OWN RISK**
