Thanks.
Two comments:
- The load_image routine (and consequently imload commad) will not work
when the image is stored in Data Flash.
- The code as-is will clearly not work with the new image format -- how
about we wait a few days for the new format patchset I've mentioned in
my previous email today? Note that the patchset will have a routine that
you could use to deal with the Data Flash scenario.
