Sounds good, it just isn't obvious to me since mkimage -l was verifying the checksum, since it doesn't display an checksum information. Now that you've said it, I see it in the README.
I also haven't seen mkimage -l displaying checksum info. Is mkimage I used out of date?

Thanks in advance,

It does not print crc. Inspecting code quickly, it only displays crc **Warning** if there is mismatch but proceeds after that as if nothing has happened. So, it was not suitable for the task anyhow.
I think -v option can be added to verify the integrity of archive and return 0 [OK] or an shell error code so it could be used in a shell script properly.
