Installing binwalk on Portable Python

Yes, that help.
Installation start, but then failed due to "Pre-requisite failure: failed to find libmagic. Check your installation. Please install the python-magic module, or download and install it from source: ftp://ftp.astron.com/pub/file/' "
Although libmagic was installed using pip.
