    4545The values given in this array are configuration parameters, that can be redefined in the '''boot_config.h''' file.
    46 This memory is only used for temporary storage : when the boot_loader completes, and transfer control to the kernel_init procedure,
    47 the kernel code (i.e. the code and data segments) has been copied at physical address 0x4000 in all clusters.
    48 The four pages (16 Kbytes) reserved for the prelloader are only used in cluster 0 and can be saved if the preloader is stored in an external ROM.
     46This memory is only used for temporary storage : when the TSAR boot_loader completes, and transfer control to the kernel_init procedure,
     47the kernel code (i.e. the code and data segments) has been copied - in each cluster - in the lowest part of the cluster physical memory.
     48The four pages (16 Kbytes) reserved for the prelloader are only used in cluster 0.

    5252In all clusters, the core with local index 0 is called ''CP0''.

     54We describe below the four boot phases :

    117117At this point, the boot-loader completed its job:
    118  * The kernel code ''kcode'' and ''kdata'' segments are are loaded - in all clusters in the first ''offset'' physical pages.
     118 * The kernel code ''kcode'' and ''kdata'' segments are loaded - in all clusters - in the first ''offset'' physical pages.
    119119 * The hardware architecture described by the '''arch_info.bin'''file has been analyzed, and copied - in each cluster - in the '''boot_info_t''' structure, stored in the kdata segment.
    120120 * Each  local kernel instance can use all the physical memory that is not used to store the kernel ''kcode'' and ''kdata'' segments themselves.
