Memory-mapped I/O is preferred in IA-32 and x86-64 based architectures because the instructions that perform port-based I/O are limited to one register: EAX, AX, and AL are the only registers that data can be moved into or out of, and either a byte-sized immediate value in the instruction or a value in register DX determines which port is the source or destination port of the transfer.
Ventoy is a free and open-source utility used for creating bootable USB media storage devices with files such as .iso, .wim, .img, .vhd(x), and .efi.Once Ventoy is installed onto a USB drive, there is no need to reformat the disk to update it with new installation files; it is enough to copy the .iso, .wim, .img, .vhd(x), or .efi file(s) to the USB drive and boot from them directly.
A modern PC is configured to attempt to boot from various devices in a certain order. If a computer is not booting from the device desired, such as the floppy drive, the user may have to enter the BIOS Setup function by pressing a special key when the computer is first turned on (such as Delete, F1, F2, F10 or F12), and then changing the boot order.

Support for NVMe HMB was added in Windows 10 Anniversary Update (Version 1607) in 2016. [42] In Microsoft Windows from Windows 10 1607 to Windows 11 23H2, the maximum HMB size is 64 MB. Windows 11 24H2 updates the maximum HMB size to 1/64 of system RAM. [102] Support for NVMe ZNS and KV was added in Windows 10 version 21H2 and Windows 11 in ...
The Raspberry Pi Zero v1.3 was released in May 2016, which added a camera connector. [40] The Raspberry Pi Zero W was launched in February 2017, a version of the Zero with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capabilities, for US$10. [41] [42] The Raspberry Pi Zero WH was launched in January 2018, a version of the Zero W with pre-soldered GPIO headers. [43]
On Apple Mac computers using Intel x86-64 processor architecture, the EFI system partition is initially left blank and unused for booting into macOS. [13] [14]However, the EFI system partition is used as a staging area for firmware updates [15] and for the Microsoft Windows bootloader for Mac computers configured to boot into a Windows partition using Boot Camp.
The Raspberry Pi (Model 2B shown) is a low-cost single-board computer often used to teach computer science. [1]A single-board computer (SBC) is a complete computer built on a single circuit board, with microprocessor(s), memory, input/output (I/O) and other features required of a functional computer.
