//		Crash log signature (string KCrashLogSignature)
//		Uncompressed log size (TUint), if log is compressed
//		Flags (TUint8) - bits 0-3 indicate log data format, bit 4 set when log

//		If nand implementation, some white space is inserted to fill up
//  	the whole of the signature block/sector
//		Actual log data in specified format
//*******WARNING*******: Crash log header each field must start/end on 4 byte
