Hi All! Current 'md5sum' command gets FILE|AREA argument, e.g. barebox:/ help md5sum md5sum - calculate MD5 checksum Usage: md5sum FILE|AREA... Calculate a MD5 digest over a FILE or a memory area. The *nix 'md5sum' gets [FILE]... argument. This behavour can be misleading. E.g. today I have tryed this command sequence on my qemu-malta machine: barebox:/ memcpy -s /dev/zero -d 1M 0 0 0x100000 barebox:/ md5sum 1M md5sum just hangs! But this command sequence works fine: barebox:/ memcpy -s /dev/zero -d zeros 0 0 0x100000 barebox:/ md5sum zeros b6d81b360a5672d80c27430f39153e2c zeros 0x00000000 ... 0xffffffffffffffff Do we really need this? We can use 'addpart' on /dev/memory for creating partial memory device and run md5sum on it. -- Best regards, Antony Pavlov _______________________________________________ barebox mailing list barebox@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/barebox
