+Flash-based Boot Loader Demo
+
+An example to demonstrate the use of a flash-based boot loader. At
+startup, the application will configure the UART, USB and Ethernet
+peripherals, and then branch to the boot loader to await the start of an
+update.
+
+This application is intended for use with flash-based ethernet boot
+loader (boot_emac_flash). Although it isn't neccessary to configure USB
+and UART interface in this example since only ethernet flash-based boot
+loader is provided, the code is there for completeness so that USB or
+UART flash-based boot loader can be implemented if needed.
+The link address for this application is set to 0x4000, the link address
+has to be multiple of the flash erase block size(16KB=0x4000).
+You may change this address to a 16KB boundary higher than the last
+address occupied by the boot loader binary as long as you also rebuild the
+boot loader itself after modifying its bl_config.h file to set
+APP_START_ADDRESS to the same value.
+
+The boot_demo_emac_flash application can be used along with this
+application to easily demonstrate that the boot loader is actually updating
+the on-chip flash.
