Hi all
I have a basic question for understanding :
If we want to boot the Linux kernel without bootloader what needs
to be done?
In other words what all the core subsystem like memory and all
needs initialisation by bootloader and if bootloader is not there
then how to do it ?
The role of a bootloader is to load and initialize an operating system -
so, in essence, you're asking "what does a bootloader do?" and "how do I
write a bootloader?"
Perhaps the easiest way to answer your question is to suggest that you
study the Linux boot process - and how it proceeds from power up, to
BIOS, to LILO or Grub. Your answer is in the details.
