For expain the situation: co-processors are some RISC cpus which
perrfom some critical tasks. Problem is limitation of memory in this
co-processors. It has only 8k flash. Code which is written for this
co-processors is bigger like 8k, so it is splitted to some lest's say
logical parts. That's the reason why I need to change FW on -fly. I
know it seems dangerous and completely strange :D but what you propose
to do? (code for co-processors is written in asm, so compiler
optimatization doesn't help to reduce code size ;))
