walle,
According to David'reply, I think you can understand Mer's boot up
process after understanding systemd.

I'm ok with the boot up process from my bootlaoder to linux kernel.My
confusion
is the partion of Mer-core.

As a example of Android, there're a lot of documents can be found to help
people to
understand the detail of the bootup process.For Mer, though i can get the

code i can hardly understand what's going on in deed without helpful guide.
