but it seems (at least my) MinGW doesn't include "dd".
I have already reported that on the mailing list earlier.
Workaround/fix is to download MSYS coreutils from the MinGW download
page.
Thanks for the hint - got it working now.
On a closer look at the "od" tool, the use of "dd" seems redundant:
-j, --skip-bytes=BYTES
skip BYTES input bytes first
-N, --read-bytes=BYTES
limit dump to BYTES input bytes
"od -N 1 -j 2 -t u1 -A n multiboot.raw" seems to do the same job and
"od" is pre-shipped on
MinGW/MSYS. But maybe "-j" and "-N" are not widely implemented. A
possible alternative could
be the use of "head" and "cut".
Right, but we need dd later on anyways and I find dd parameters easier
to read than the ones from od, probably because I simply use dd more
often :-).
signrom.sh currently uses dd, od, expr, cp and printf. All seem to come from
coreutils.
coreutils also includes the "sum" utility, which seems to compute the checksum
you
calculate in the for loop if the option "-s" is specified.
In any case signrom.sh might check for the presence of tools used.
Good idea. Please post a patch!
Maybe something like the following in the hope that "which" is always available.
