Chapter 1 BIOS Overview

1.1 Introduction

BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) is the program that controls the computer boot

process. The purpose of the BIOS is to identify and initialize processor, memory, hard

drives, optical drives, and other hardware.

1.2 BIOS Boot Flow

BIOS core follows the firmware model described in the UEFI Platform Initialization

Specification (PI). The PI Specification defines the following “boot phases”, which can

be applied to various checkpoints and beep code descriptions:

Security (SEC) – low-level initialization

Pre-EFI Initialization (PEI) – memory initialization

Driver Execution Environment (DXE) – main hardware initialization

Boot Device Selection (BDS) – system setup, pre-OS user interface & selecting a

bootable device (CD/DVD, HDD, USB, Network, Shell, etc).
