Description

       b43-fwcutter  can  extract  the  firmware  for  your  Broadcom 43xx hardware from different closed source
       drivers. The b43 driver depends on these firmware files and can't work without them.

       Currently b43-fwcutter supports Apple MacOS X, Microsoft Windows and Linux drivers, but keep in mind that
       b43-fwcutter doesn't support all driver versions.

       Example:

              b43-fwcutter bcmwl5.sys

       to cut the firmware out of bcmwl5.sys
