内核启动过程（Kernel boot process） 1.Linux boot process overview An embedded Linux system from a software perspective can be divided into four parts: the bootloader (Bootloader), Linux kernel, file system, application. Where Bootloader is the implementation of the system is started or reset after the first code, it is mainly used to initialize the processor and peripherals, and then call the Linux kernel. The Linux kernel after the completion of the initialization of the system need to mount a file system as the root file system (Root Filesystem). The root file system is the core part of Linux system, it can be used as storage area Linux system files and data, it usually includes the required system configuration file and run the application software library. The application of embedded system can be said to be the soul, which implements the function of the embedded system is usually designed to achieve the goal. If there is no support for the application of the embedded system hardware design, any sophisticated have no practical significance. 2. Bootloader boot process The operation process of Bootloader has to initialize the system and execute user input commands and so on, but its fundamental function is to start the Linux kernel. The concept of Bootloader 2.1. Bootloader is the bootloader of embedded system, it is the power system operation of the first section of the program, its function is similar to the PC machine on BIOS. After the completion of system initialization task, it will be a non-volatile memory (usually Flash or DOC) in the Linux kernel to RAM, and then jumps to the first instruction of the kernel to continue to start the Linux kernel. Thus, the Bootloader and Linux kernel are closely linked to a clear understanding of the startup process of Linux kernel, we must first understand the implementation process of Bootloader, so as to the starting process of the embedded system have a clear grasp During the execution of 2.2 Bootloader The first instruction a
