[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH][RESEND.3] ar71xx:stops qihoo c301 booting into backup firmware

[swigger]

NO, not seama. Seama is only a container, not an encrypted format.

The original OEM firmware is encrypted by AES ECB mode and have a
RSA-1024 signuature.
The aes key is base64_decode("lbhySwdj31NGnuebNn9FmQ==");

The oem's upgrade firmware web page ONLY allows encrypted firmware
while the u-boot allows only decrypted.

There is a program in OEM firwmare whose path is /usr/sbin/rom_decrypt
to decrypt OEM firmware.

Encrypted OEM firmware can be downloaded at
http://luyou.360.cn/rom.html (Simplified Chinese Only).
