To extract the ndrv PEF from an Open Firmware PCI option ROM, you need to first detokenize the ROM or convert it to Forth, because the ndrv is encoded as a series of hex strings with encode-bytes encode+ fcodes between each string.
The PEF you created has 45302 bytes but the correctly extracted PEF has 43029 bytes.
Only part of a PEF contains compressed data. The 43029 byte PEF can be compressed to 24457 bytes.
The entire ROM is 46080 bytes and can be compressed to 25762 bytes but this is the v2.5 rom (the stripped-down version?) and we want to work with the later unmodified rom.
I don't know about ARM firmware. Maybe there's some documentation somewhere? You can PM me the details.
