Some people on Pentax Forum in the U.S. have found a way to make the firmware 1.01 work with Mac and Linux operating system. Here is the link:

You will have to read the thread 'cause I was not able to narrow it down to the specific part that makes it compatible with Mac. Enjoy your Mac and K20D v.1.01

you can extract the windows .exe with just about any archiving tool.
I don't understand why Pentax doesn't supply a simple .zip file so anyone with any operating system can extract it.

ah, I just looked at the Pentax UK website and they allready have a zip file for the firmware.
