Hi Team,


To achieve a specific requirement for us the "rauc install" command won't
work i.e due to a configuration that we have the rauc install would fail.
Though we would still like to go ahead and flashload to that partition. We
would like to know if the approach below is correct


Our understanding of rauc install suggests that it does the following
things:

   1. Verify signature of the bundle
   2. Run partition selection algorithm
   3. Extract the tar balls from the bundle
   4. Create new ext4 FS on the selected partition
   5. Write appropriate tar ball to the partition


Since "rauc install" would give us errors due to our configuration we plan
to achieve this using the steps below:

   1. Verify signature of the bundle (rauc info ...)
   2. Partition selection algorithm (we would like to skip this)
   3. Extract the tar balls from the bundle (rauc extract ..)
   4. Create new ext4 FS on the selected partition + Write appropriate tar
   ball to the partition (rauc write-slot ... ....)


Is the above way of bypassing the "rauc install" command for our
requirement correct? Any issues you feel might arise with this approach?

Regards,

Abhishek Rai
