HOWTO: Boot an OS, Camille Lecuyer, LSE Week 2013
Channel: lseepita
Date: 05/08/2013

We will see what happen when we boot a computer, existing methods and protocols. Today, the main methods to boot an OS are via the BIOS (with MBR) and via the new way, UEFI. The goal of this talk is to understand what bios and UEFI provide, why today we can use UEFI and how to use both of them. We will explain also how to boot a Linux kernel and a Multiboot kernel.
