4. EFI system partition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EFI_System_partition

   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.

5. BIOS - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS

   The BIOS uses the boot devices set in Nonvolatile BIOS memory , or, in the earliest PCs, DIP switches. The BIOS checks each device in order to see if it is bootable by attempting to load the first sector (boot sector). If the sector cannot be read, the BIOS proceeds to the next device.

6. Booting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booting

   Typically, the system firmware (UEFI or BIOS) will allow the user to configure a boot order. If the boot order is set to "first, the DVD drive; second, the hard disk drive", then the firmware will try to boot from the DVD drive, and if this fails (e.g. because there is no DVD in the drive), it will try to boot from the local hard disk drive.

8. Boot ROM - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boot_ROM

   The boot ROM of NXP systems on a chip (SOCs) support configuring the peripherals through specific pins of the system on a chip. On the i.MX6 family it also supports configuring the boot order through efuses. The boot ROM of several NXP SoCs have many ways to load the first stage bootloader (from eMMC, microSD, USB, etc.).

9. Reset vector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reset_vector

   The reset vector for MIPS32 processors is at virtual address 0xBFC00000, [11] which is located in the last 4 Mbytes of the KSEG1 non-cacheable region of memory. [12] The core enters kernel mode both at reset and when an exception is recognized, hence able to map the virtual address to physical address.
