ACPI extraction

[Myles Watson]

What's the best way to extract all the ACPI tables from a system to
use with Coreboot?  /proc/acpi only seems to have a couple of them.

I'd just use phnxdeco, but it isn't working for my ROM.

Thanks,
Myles

I've been using the following script I wrote.It uses acpidump and a
recent version of iasl

Run acpidump. That should dump all tables in a non-readable format. The
resulting file can be worked on (list/extract tables) with acpixtract.
