Size of boot loader? Total space on flash for application.

Post by cme0848 »

I've built an application in the Eclipse IDE for my Netburner Mod 5282 that comes to 258K. The product has 512K of flash for storing this application however I believe that I cannot use all of the 512K space because netburner must have a bootloader for actually decompressing my *.s19 file and loading it into memory. Does anyone know how large this boot loader is? What i'm trying to find out is how much "wiggle room" is left in my flash before I commit to another development cycle for adding features to my code that may not fit.

Thanks!

There is a memory map in the platform document:
C:\nburn\docs\platform\Mod5282.pdf
16K for the boot monitor
8K for config record
8K for user parameter space
480K for compressed application storage
