Limitations

• Boot image editing functionality is not implemented in the Linux version
• Some advanced super.img manipulation features require the original Android version
• The tool focuses on basic partition extraction, mounting, and image conversion

Troubleshooting

• Ensure all binaries in bin/x86_64/ are executable
• Check that you have sudo privileges for mount operations
• Verify that your system supports ext4 filesystems
• Make sure you have sufficient disk space for image operations
