Free and open-source software portal; OpeniBoot is an open source implementation of Apple's closed source bootloader iBoot.It allows the booting of unsigned code on supported Apple Devices (such as Linux kernels).
For iPhones, iPads and Apple silicon-based Macs, the boot process starts by running the device's boot ROM. On iPhones and iPads with A9 or earlier A-series processors, the boot ROM loads the Low-Level Bootloader ( LLB ), which is the stage 1 bootloader and loads iBoot; on Macs and devices with A10 or later processors, the boot ROM loads iBoot.
Prior to the development and ubiquitous adoption of the Plug and Play BIOS standard, an add-on device such as a hard disk controller or a network adapter card (NIC) was generally required to include an option ROM in order to be bootable, as the motherboard BIOS did not include any support for the device and so could not incorporate it into the BIOS's boot protocol.
If the sector is read successfully, some BIOSes will also check for the boot sector signature 0x55 0xAA in the last two bytes of the sector (which is 512 bytes long), before accepting a boot sector and considering the device bootable. [b] When a bootable device is found, the BIOS transfers control to the loaded sector.

The partition type (or partition ID) in a partition's entry in the partition table inside a master boot record (MBR) is a byte value intended to specify the file system the partition contains or to flag special access methods used to access these partitions (e.g. special CHS mappings, LBA access, logical mapped geometries, special driver access, hidden partitions, secured or encrypted file ...
