   Hi @Sriram-JI, could you please elaborate a little? Do you mean splitting into different boot images?
   If the question is regarding the split command available, it works as below:
   Slave boot mode splits as below.
   1. Boot Header + Bootloader
   2. Image and Partition Headers
   3. Rest of the partitions.
   Normal mode splits as below.
   1. Boot Header + Image Headers + Partition Headers + Bootloader
   2. Partiton1
   3. Partition2 ...
   Please run "bootgen -bif_help split" for more details.

   Hi Ramya,

          Thanks for your reply.
          My Scenario would be like assume I am using normal mode to split.
          So I  will be having 3 partitions:
          Partition 1 -> BH + IH + PH + FSBL
          Partition 2 -> Linux Kernel
          Partition 3 -> RootFS
          using 3 respective .bif files.
          
          Output:
          partition1.bin
          partition2.bin
          partition3.bin
          
          Can we able to load these .bin's as plain image? Also can we sign these bin's & authenticate using eFUSE keys?
