| 15 | <h2>What is Flashing</h2> | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | <p> Flashing in the sense used here and elsewhere in regard to Rockbox, means | ||
| 18 | reprogramming the flash memory of the Archos unit. Flash memory (sometimes | ||
| 19 | called "flash RAM") is a type of constantly-powered nonvolatile memory that | ||
| 20 | can be erased and reprogrammed. It is a variation of electrically erasable | ||
| 21 | programmable read-only memory (EEPROM). | ||
| 22 | |||
| 23 | <p> | ||
| 24 | When you bought Your Archos, it came with the Archos firmware flashed. Now, | ||
| 25 | you can replace the built-in software with Rockbox. | ||
