This utility allows the generation and obfuscation of the Xikestor SKS7300 series image formats. So far, only the SKS7300-4X4T is supported and tested, but according to the (currently unavailable) downloads of other firmware files of the same series, it should work with minimal modifications also for other models of the same series.

While the web interface might accept images created with this utility, it is impossible to flash OpenWrt from the OEM web interface due to the obfuscation and the checksums. For flashing OpenWrt, only the kernel will be treated with this utility, the rootfs will stay on the flash with U-Boot being unaware of it.

I don't know why I missed the commit description. Fixed, rebased and force-pushed!

series image formats. So far, only the SKS7300-4X4T is supported and
tested, but according to the downloads of other firmware files of the same
series, it should work with minimal modifications also for other models of
the same series. One user reported success in the forum.
