I tried this but the page was lacking info on how to get the linaro
toolchain installed (and when I found out that, it was time to go to bed).

Tried this too didn't work yesterday, retried today and noticed that 7z
under ubuntu is called p7zip so I changed
    7z x  ../$1 >> ${logfile}
into
    p7zip -d  ../$1 >> ${logfile}

retried the command after chainging the script and that seems to work like
a charm (haven't tested the image yet)
