NAME¶

colo-perm - check whether CoLo is resident in ROM

SYNOPSIS¶

colo-perm [ -q]

DESCRIPTION¶

colo-perm is a tool which looks in the ROM of a Cobalt machine for a magic string identifying CoLo. This way, it can be determined if the original Cobalt firmware is used or whether CoLo has been flashed to the ROM.

OPTIONS¶

-q

Do not print a message on the screen saying whether CoLo has been found to be resident in the ROM.

 

RETURN VALUE¶

colo-perm returns zero if CoLo has been found in the ROM or 1 if it has not been found. 255 is returned if an error occurred.
