Hi, I am triying generate the genesis block but I not know how fill the extradata field: hashfor#1028201_goes_here to make it correct. Can someone help me please?

reignbeau: maybe you have that quit 'hashfor' here: "hash_for_0x11bbe8db4e347b4e8c937c1c8370e4b5ed33adb3db69cbdb7a38e1e50b1b82fa" I not know if this has is past of date or can be use yet.
