[Q] anyone mind extracting the rfs files from JMA firmware?

I dont have access to a linux box and I think in order to flash the latest JMA firmware from samfirmware i need to extract the rfs files in order to load them up via odin...if im completely off please disregard or point me to the correct path..
if any helpful souls out there that wouldnt mind extracting the files and uploading them here?
thanks
Im just a noob trying to flash the latest JMA firmware on my JM6 tab
thanks again..
EDIT - Thank you all for explaining it:
For anyone else presented with the same issue; use the zipped JMA file in odin in the PDA box and the pit file located at the bottom of the samfirm page when flashing the latest JMA firmware.

Extract them yourself by opening the file with 7Zip or WinZip. They're just archives.
Also - Should be in the General section.

thanks for the tips. I just installed both winzip and 7zip and could not extract the factory.rfs file with either.....
im guessing I have to extract the factory.rfs file and zip as a tar file for odin right?

The file you download is a zip file. Unzip it. There should be a tar file in there, tar is an archive format (similar to the way zip is, only it's uncompressed), so use 7zip or other unarchiving software to untar the file. There will be all of the JMA files including the RFS images contained in the tar file.

I see, so i downloaded a ziped file from samfirmware with the JMA firmware, unziped it down and got the pit file but there were no tar files in there for me to use in odin under the PDA box.
when flashing JMA what file do i put in PDA box? i pressume thats the only file i will use besides the pit file given that i dont want to replace the modem (phone) file...
I'm sorry if this is not making any sense

Use the JMA file here on XDA. Extra JMA.tar. Select that file ALONE as PDA. No repartition, PIT, Phone or CSC. It'll update PDA, Phone and CSC automatically.
If it doesn't reboot on its own after flash is complete, reboot into recovery.
You should be upgrading to JMA from JM6.
If you still need to extract/unpackage RFS->
Reffer to my guide here

Need stock VZW dj11 wpa_supplicant file

Anyone have the stock dj11 wpa_supplicant file? I didn't change the stock file to .bak, I saved it to my sdcard. Accidentally deleted the backup and now I can't get the latest update. I was on ec02 but used heimdall to flash stock dj11 thinking it would replace the modified file, but it didn't. Now I'm stuck on dj11 and the update hangs on the wpa check. I've downloaded 2 different supposedly stock wpa_supplicant files, but neither worked with the update. I've double checked and made sure there were no .xxx extensions on the file also.
Thanks,
96cobra
Disregard, found another set of stock files and flashed them with heimdall. Everything working as expected now.
Which method did you use? Can you post a link to the files you used?
I ended up using the files from this post here on xda... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033586
I originally tried files from a different site (droidforums/gizmoninja) and they did get me back to stock dj11, but the left the modified wpa file.
