disable CRC checking

Hello.

I would like to disable the CRC checking of the Linux kernel during the startup. Is that possible? I have tried:
setenv skip_crc 1
Then I have added a few lines to the file cmd_bootm.c, like:
if (getenv("skip_crc") != NULL)
{. . .}

The problem is that the CRC check appears at so many places. Is there a smart solution?

Greetings

Yes, set the environment variable "verify" to something beginning with 'n' ("no" for example) and the CRC check will be skipped.
