EEPROM CKSUM? what is this?

Hi all,

So I have a binary file and I need to generate an expected EEPROM checksum for it. Ideally, I would like to input the file (with the path) and output a computed checksum. Ive been using (cksum file1) with no avail and I was just curious as to whether there is such thing as EEPROM cksum, and if so, how do i use it. Thanks very much in advanced for your help.

There are lots of checksum algorithms. You would need to find out which algorithm is being used. Then if you can't find a program to calculate your particular checksum you would need to write one. Most EEPROM checksums will be some form of CRC.
