Hello John,

>From the pointer:* magic** is a 32 bit number that identifies the ROM as a
CBFS type. The magic number is 0x4F524243, which is 'ORBC' in ASCII.*

I did install on my F24 VM (in order to verify this info) wxHexEditor

Please, you can all try it, there are some environmental catches/packages
and CCP flags (CCPFLAGS) to be added, but it is fairly manageable. Here is
how GUI looks like:

Interesting enough, wxHexAuthor Erdem (U. Altinyurt) is a jobless computer
engineer, born and living since 1981,in Istanbul, Turkey. Why Erdem is
jobless, that is the (crucial) question??? ;-)
