Abstract

Methods, apparatuses, and systems for software stack building using a logically protected region of a computer-readable medium are described. An image of a software stack may be stored in a computer-readable medium. A computer, coupled to the computer-readable medium, may build an executable software stack on the same computer-readable medium from the image. The image may be stored in a logically-protected region of the computer-readable medium. After the storing and prior to the building, data stored on the computer-readable medium outside of the logically-protected region may be erased.
