From ArchosDocs
This file holds a lot of the Archos's user settings. We can learn the position and name of all data fields by reverse engineering the params_SaveHdd() function. The function itself is pretty boring, so here's a brief summary.
- The first 4 bytes are the magic: 0x5896117f
- The next 16 bytes contain an md5 checksum of the file.
- The rest of the file contains data blocks. Each block has the following structure:
- 2 bytes containing the total block size
- 2 bytes containing the block identifier
- a data blob of length [block size minus 4] bytes.
Here's the contents of system6_parser.c.
