Abstract
Multiple binary images stored in the firmware of an electronic device are written to the device's configuration tables during booting of the device, where one of the binary images is a manager binary. During booting, the manager binary is saved to the file system of the operating system such that it automatically executes upon completion of booting. The manager binary then saves the other binary images to the OS file system, such that they also execute automatically.
