Newer EnGenius software that still uses the tar.gz platform
instead of the custom header requires more checks for upgrading,
but their script includes a way to skip them...
the existence of a file in the tar.gz called failsafe.bin
Their upgrade script has these lines:
\#pass check when upload with full image file
[ "${errcode}" -eq "1" ] && [ -f failsafe.bin ] && errcode="0"
This overrides the script's "errcode" variable
which can be set if any of the following actions/checks fail:
- untarring of the upload
- magic number for kernel: "2705"
- magic num for rootfs: "7371" or "6873"
- md5sums for each file in the format
filename:md5
- existence of a file matching FWINFO*
that it has boardname in the name somewhere (grep)
that the 4th field of separator "-" is at least 3 (version)
Otherwise we would need to generate md5sums in this strange format
and touch a file with specific requirements in the name.
This does not effect boards where the advanced checks do not apply.
