  2. 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.

  3. BIOS boot partition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS_Boot_partition

    The EFI System partition holds a filesystem and files used by the UEFI, while the BIOS boot partition is used in BIOS-based systems and accessed without a filesystem by holding raw binary code. The size requirements for a BIOS boot partition are quite low so it can be as small as about 30 KiB; however, as future boot loaders might require more ...

  4. Option ROM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Option_ROM

    The boot loader on the option ROM would attempt to boot from a disk, network, or other boot program source attached to or installed on the adapter card; if that boot attempt failed, it would pass control to the previous boot loader (to which INT 19h pointed before the option ROM hooked it), allowing the system to boot from another device as a ...

  5. UEFI - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFI

    The original motivation for EFI came during early development of the first Intel–HP Itanium systems in the mid-1990s. BIOS limitations (such as 16-bit real mode, 1 MB addressable memory space, [7] assembly language programming, and PC AT hardware) had become too restrictive for the larger server platforms Itanium was targeting. [8]

  7. Boot ROM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boot_ROM

    When a system on a chip (SoC) enters suspend to RAM mode, in many cases, the processor is completely off while the RAM is put in self refresh mode. At resume, the boot ROM is executed again and many boot ROMs are able to detect that the SoC was in suspend to RAM and can resume by jumping directly to the kernel which then takes care of powering on again the peripherals which were off and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booting_process_of_Windows

    In all versions of Windows 9x except ME, it is also possible to load Windows by booting to a DOS prompt and typing "win".

  9. Booting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booting

    Examples of first-stage (hardware initialization stage) boot loaders include BIOS, UEFI, coreboot, Libreboot and Das U-Boot. On the IBM PC, the boot loader in the Master Boot Record (MBR) and the Partition Boot Record (PBR) was coded to require at least 32 KB [51] [52] (later expanded to 64 KB [53]) of system memory and only use instructions ...
