	No... There are programs (including an NDA, I believe) out there that
let you load a DA into memory whenever you want to. As someone else pointed
out, you have a number of other options as well. I'm not real familiar with
any of the programs to load a DA in after a boot, but that's because I wrote
a shell utility to do just that (makes debugging a DA much easier!).
