+>To install the RedBoot
+package, follow the procedures detailed in the accompanying README. </P
+><P
+>Although there are other possible configurations, RedBoot is usually
+run from the target platform&#8217;s flash boot sector or boot ROM, and is
+designed to run when your system is initially powered on. The method used
+to install the RedBoot image into non-volatile storage varies from platform
+to platform. In general, it requires that the image be programmed into flash
+in situ or programmed into the flash or ROM using a device programmer. In
+some cases this will be done at manufacturing time; the platform being delivered
+with RedBoot already in place. In other cases, you will have to program RedBoot
+into the appropriate device(s) yourself. Installing to flash in situ may require
+special cabling or interface devices and software provided by the board manufacturer.
+The details of this installation process for a given platform will be found
+in Installation and Testing. Once installed, user-specific configuration options
+may be applied, using the <B
+CLASS="COMMAND"
+>fconfig</B
+> command,
+providing that persistent data storage in flash is present in the relevant
+RedBoot version. See <A
+HREF="configuring-the-redboot-environment.html"
+>the Section called <I
+>Configuring the RedBoot Environment</I
