how patching

[Олег Мороз]

I've tried to do that on a flying spacecraft. Spacecraft on board 
computer's RTOS was a vxworks but in my case it does not matters. I've 
did it in most easiest way. I've got an original binary file (with which 
SC was launched) and a modified (with some bugfixes). Then i'm just 
compare it byte by byte and collects diffs like:

0x01234 0A 12 13 14 15
0x03456 FF FA FB FC FE

and i know that my binary file is located in OBC RAM started from 
0x2010000 then i'm just add this start address to diff file address and 
load to spacecraft. Works like a magic, but your could fix some very 
simple bugs because original and "fixed" file should have the same sizes.
