You need to compute and check/display the CRC for all the images that have been flashed. It could make sense to include in the test program binary the CRC for the images that do not have a CRC built in or for which retrieving it is not obvious (bitstream, splash screen, ...) so the operator does not need to compare those CRCs manually. > > Also, the test program can be smart, i.e. use the CRC present in the > > BIOS and FBI images.

The CRC of the rescue BIOS will vary depending on the MAC address. So by using the CRC that was written at the end, you do not need to manually check (or code into the test program binary) as many CRCs as there are boards.
