Boot Sequence — Overview

From power-on to Workbench desktop: hardware init, ROM validation, kernel creation, device enumeration, boot block execution, and startup scripts.

Section Index

File Description
cold_boot.md Power-on to Kickstart: CPU reset vectors, ROM checksum, hardware reset, memory detection, diagnostic indicators, capture vectors
kickstart_rom.md Kickstart ROM internals: binary structure, module inventory, extraction tools, custom ROM building, EPROM burning
kickstart_init.md ExecBase creation, capture vectors, resident module scan algorithm, 4-phase initialization, bootstrap handoff
dos_boot.md strap module, boot block format and execution, MountList/DOSDrivers, system assigns, Startup-Sequence walkthrough. See also: CD-ROM Filesystems
disk_boot.md Disk boot deep dive: floppy MFM physics, HDD/IDE/SCSI boot (PIO vs DMA), RDB partitioning (LSEG driver chains, 16-sector scan bounds, RDB vs Boot Block), controller & driver ecosystem (Gayle, GVP, A4091, TF1260), CompactFlash, disk image preparation (amitools, WinUAE, HDToolBox), failure modes
early_startup.md Early Startup Control menu: boot device selection, display mode override, recovery scenarios
kickstart-boot-diagnostics.md Kickstart POST: color-screen self-test architecture, 7-phase ColdStart sequence, coldCrash handler, diagnostic cartridge intercept, troubleshooting cross-reference
