\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\cf2\b0\fs18 GenVtf is used to generate the Boot Strap File (AKA Volume Top File, or VTF) for IPF images. This utility will parse the input BSF inf file and get the component information. If all the components which are required to put into a single VTF file, then only one VTF Base Address and Size will be needed and only one raw data output file and one symbol output file which is the symbol of raw data. If there\rquote s component which is required to put into the second VTF file but there\rquote s no second VTF Base Address and Size specified in command line interface, then this utility will exit with related error message; if there\rquote s second VTF Base Address and Size specified, then there are two raw data output files and one symbol output file.\par

\pard\keep\keepn\nowidctlpar\s2\li-1440\sb400\sa60\sl-340\slmult0\cf1\b\fs28 Example\cf3\f1\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\sb200\cf2\b0\f0\fs18 Generate one VTF file with inf file name, base address and size specified in command line and without output filename specified. So default filename \ldblquote VTF1.RAW\rdblquote  will be used.\par
\b GenVtf \endash f bsf.inf \endash r 0xFFE00000 \endash s 0x200000\par
\b0 Generate two VTF files with inf file name, base address and size specified in command line and without output filename specified. So default filename \ldblquote VTF1.RAW\rdblquote  and \ldblquote VTF2.RAW\rdblquote will be used.\par
\b GenVtf \endash f bsf.inf \endash r 0xFFE00000 \endash s 0x200000 \endash r 0xFFD00000 \endash s 0x100000\par
\b0 Generate one VTF file with inf file name, base address and size specified in command line and output filename specified.\par
\b GenVtf \endash o file.tmp \endash f bsf.inf \endash r 0xFFE00000 \endash s 0x200000\par
\b0 Generate two VTF files with inf file name, base address and size specified in command line and output filename specified.\par
\b GenVtf \endash o file1.tmp \endash o file2.tmp \endash f bsf.inf \endash r 0xFFE00000 \endash s 0x200000 \endash r 0xFFD00000 \endash s 0x100000\par
