Re: [avr-gcc-list] how to write specific value to program memory?

[David Breeze]

The following will store a string in flash memory

static uint8_t  PROGMEM  top_menu_title[] =  { "Test program\n\r" };

Note that FLASH memory is page addressable not byte addressable thus with 
certain exceptions it is not possible to write to the memory from your program. 
 Boot programs which can re-write your application all have to be at the top of 
memory, that is how the device is designed.

Also there is a limit to the number of times flash can be re-written and so is 
unsuitable as a volatile memory replacement.
