Bootstrap load process

The following figure shows the bootstrap load process.

Note:

The golden bootstrap image shown in Figure: System initialization: bootstrap load process is only supported on the 7210 SAS-D.

See Boot options on 7210 SAS platforms for more information about platform-specific supported boot options, and how the specific system processes these options and loads the bootstrap image file (boot.tim), the TiMOS image (both.tim) and the configuration file to make the system operational and ready for use.
