x86 Early Kernel Boot Process with Microcode, ACPI Overrides, and Initrd
(labcsmart.com)
In this third installment of our x86 Platforms series, following Part 2: UEFI Bootloader Management and Integration with Yocto, we’re going to explore the early kernel boot process in more depth. Specifically, we’ll cover how x86 systems handle microcode updates, ACPI table overrides, and the initrd (initial RAM disk). These elements are critical for configuring the CPU, hardware, and the system during the boot process.
