The startup logic and configuration data for processing components within a device is stored in a single nonvolatile memory. Upon receipt of a command to initialize the device, the shared memory system copies the startup logic and configuration data from the nonvolatile memory to a volatile main memory. Then, each processing component accesses the main memory to find its startup logic and configuration data and begin executing. The shared memory system reduces the number of nonvolatile memory components used to initialize multiple processing components.
