The only issue i see for now is that the image header structure won't accomodate the Digital signature string i.e. "image_header_t" and it has to be appended at the end of the firmware data blob.
You could write the signature to a separate file and use a multi-file image to combine image and signature.
Thanks for the suggestion!!!
Due the nature of the product this is possible but than again the warranty would void if some one updates the software by themselves.
The same is true if someone loads and runs an image that was not officially released - so why goong through all this effort just to make it more difficult to someone who *wants* to ignore the warranty?
Due to the very nature any corrupted image can be actually turn out to be futile for the very person. Its for their safety only.
Thanks for your kind help.
