"tftpboot" loads the file then if "autostart" is "yes" it automatically 
boots from the load address. The patch just loads the file then stops. 
When programming a board I use it to copy images across before I program 
them into flash. In effect, it does the same thing as setting 
"autostart" to "off" then using "tftpboot".

I'm new to creating patches which I think explains the horrible word 
wrapping.
