Hello, I wanted to know if it is possible to run a code on the stm32f4 board from an external flash like an sd card. Do I have to program a bootloader?

Thanks

You'd read your executable code into RAM and run it from there.

''read your executable code into RAM''

Or Flash - in which case you'd probably also want some means to check if it's already in the Flash...
