on where and how the image was downloaded into Flash memory.
This table describes the various ways an image might be downloaded

The image was downloaded as
the first file by a nonrelocat-
able image. The image will execute in place
from Flash memory, like a run-
from-Flash image.

not as the first file by a nonre-
locatable image. The nonrelocatable image will
not relocate the image before
