Description

The init filesystem is located at 0x210000 in flash memory. In this flash segment you will find an initramfs image containing the kernel and a cpio filesystem. The .cpio.gz file can be extracted using the aos-flash utility from aos-tools:

aos-flash ./init_0x00210000 -x init.cpio.gz
gunzip -d init.cpio.gz
cat init.cpio | sudo cpio -idmv

This will extract the filesystem into its individual files, or you can just download this archive (from firmware 1.7.02). Or a copy of the original init.cpio.gz.
