1. A method for decompression during firmware updates, comprising:
inputting a compressed image in a computing system;
beginning a decompression process of decompressing another image over the compressed image by a processor, based on a plurality of states of the decompression process, wherein, as the decompression progresses, the decompressed image overrides the inputted compressed image;
saving a state of the plurality of states at which an interruption to the decompression process occurs due to loss of power, wherein the state of the decompression process is saved after each completed state;
resuming the decompression process at the saved state when the power is restored; and
completing the decompression process of decompressing another image over the inputted compressed image.
