Hi, I am very much interested in building my own custom Linux firmware for specific reasons. Unfortunately I am not familiar how is an OS booted. I know that the MBR is the first 512bytes or KBs of the bootable HDD and the grub or LILO or whatever needs to be there. That's ok.
My question would be that after the grub is loaded and I am about ready to boot the system what is happening. Loads the kernel, runs initrd or what? What are those init things? What are runlevels? What is very necessary and required to boot a system?
