Do you have any pointer to updated documentation for VSA2? For example
from VSA2 source I can see where to load source, destination and length
(esi,edi,ecx) but is there documentation about that?
About VSA2 image: I suppose you have something like this:
4 bytes len(VSA) | vsainit.bin | sysmgr.vsm
- Is this correct?
- How do you compress the image?
- Do you provide VSA2 binary image for download somewhere?
thanks,
Indrek
