3.6.4
Booting from ROM
 
Programming an executable program or a Diamond application into a user area will 
result in the first such area being noted as the "boot area", the place to boot from 
following reset. The summary of the ROM's contents in the top right window will 
show that area as being "(Boot area: Enabled)". 
 
If the first appropriate user area is disabled (see 3.6.5 ) and marked as "(Boot area: 
Disabled)", you can enable it by clicking on the entry in the list of areas and then 
clicking the "Enable" button to the right of the list. 
 
3.6.5
Preventing booting from ROM
 
If a user area has been enabled (see 3.6.4 ) and marked as "(Boot area: Enabled)", 
you can prevent it from being executed on reset by clicking on the entry in the list of 
areas, clicking the "Disable" button to the right of the list, and then programming the 
changes by clicking "Program Flash". This does not remove the area, but simply 
stops the bootloader from loading it. Loading will be done from comport as usual.
