This "may be a legacy image" print is when we have successfully copied and validated the 64 byte mkimage header and are not able to allocate the memory from heap for the image data. What it means is that although the whole image might be a good "Legacy image" but we can not guarantee because we have not yet validated the dcrc. Thats why this print "May be a legacy image" -Vipin > > -Scott > . >
