Umm it's maybe difficult. This team don't use the linux and don't have
linux environment.
Only generate binary it and remaining job are done by each product team.
The even worse there's no console when they are use it.

Enter the download mode and send the image to target.

Of course this method is not visible to their. and no behavior changed
to our environment.

Thank you,
