  8. 			Some device configurations have no flash memory to store runtime parameters and firmware so the local host must store them until needed then write them into device <acronym class="acronym">SDRAM</acronym> and start execution. This is also needed when the flash memory is blank or corrupted because the runtime firmware is the only way to write flash memory. Programs <a class="ulink" href="int6kf.7.html" target="_top">int6kf</a>,  <a class="ulink" href="int6kboot.7.html" target="_top">int6kboot</a>, <a class="ulink" href="ampboot.7.html" target="_top">ampboot</a> and <a class="ulink" href="plcboot.7.html" target="_top">plcboot</a> are used to configure a blank device then download runtime parameters and firmware and start execution. They all perform the same basic function but in different ways.
