There's no plugin, but you find the toolchain in the "flash" subdir in cvs. The process is a bit involved, I'm saving this for the normal user. You'd need to: 1) dump your original flash 2) use my "extract" tool to grab the Archos image from it 3) descramble the Archos image 4) UCL-pack it 5) compile the bootloader 6) scramble the bootloader (not for the ROMless) 7) have/prepare a template for the flash image, depends on platform and ROMless or not 8) use my "make_firmware" tool to compose an image with bootloader, Archos and Rockbox Certainly I haven't tested above steps with all the firmware variants out there. I prefer to release a tested image, instead of leaving this to everbody's fate. (You may as well call it lazyness.)
