Provide uncompressed images to support BerryBoot #40

Or maybe I'm just dumb enough to not be able to figure out how to uncompress them. Had no luck with either tar or unzip, not even with a GUI tool.

tar -xvpf should do it.

You may need to "gunzip" first if you're using an ancient version of tar without zlib support

gunzip returns an image, but crc32 returns BAD aaac8cf7 != b604995c, is this normal?

For reference, sha1sum is a637b3cd5c0e12a304a1d695c8406730b63fbb57

Another way to get the BerryBoot compatible "SYSTEM" file from a RasPlex release is to simply install RasPlex normally to an SD card (or a USB drive even though it can't boot from such drives), and then copy the "SYSTEM" file from the installed FAT32 partition. That's how I always do it myself, since I install RasPlex both for a BerryBoot driven RPi3 and for an RPi2 booting only RasPlex.
