摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To achieve the high speed operation of kernel booting process in a computer equipped with a plurality of connection devices.;SOLUTION: Firstly, in a first phase 201, booting process for each device installed in a computer is performed. In this case, booting process is sequentially performed from a device whose stand-by time for booting the device is longer. When the first phase 201 is completed, first phase completion decision processing 203 is performed. In the first phase completion decision processing 203, whether or not boot has been completed is decided for every device. In a second phase 204, the initialization of the device driver corresponding to the device whose boot completion has been confirmed is performed. At last, the other initialization processing 205 such as a memory initialization process is performed.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
