When users run the following command:
image

Will the output file contain the 4096 bytes of Blob data? Considering two scenarios:

  1. the input file flash.bin contains the Blob data.
  2. the input file flash.bin has no Blob data.

The blob will only be included if specified in the tool command line, to avoid accidentally overwriting the firmware. The first 4096 bytes of the input are ignored.

Additionally, you need to specify which EVE generation the firmware is for, as the loader will ignore firmware that has the wrong EVE generation tag.
