Could you explain me about the word boot?

Question

boot proccess for windows

Answer 1

In computing, booting (booting up) is a bootstrapping process that starts operating systems when the user turns on a computer system. A boot sequence is the set of operations the computer performs when it is switched on that loads an operating system.

Do you need more detail?

Answer 2

boot up, power up, start up, turn on, same thing, it just hapen that some crazy one, one day decided to kick up his computer and must have a boots on... and now, is part of the slang for computer talk. One day I actually got corrected by someone when I said... "when I start up my computer..." and got "corrected" into saying: "When I boot up my computer...".

in the case of a disk, a "bootable" disk, it means that it contains a "boot sector" which means, that it contains an operating system in a designated area for it, in such a way, that a computer does not need anything else to "boot up", just that disk. Does it make any sense?

Now, if what you really are asking is, about the boot up process of windows, of how and what hapens, that is a totally different question and a very much complicated one. But remember you asked "...explain me a bout the word boot"

Answer 3

Actually, it's a word that dates back to the early days of computers. That was when there were smart people sitting in front of dumb terminals instead of the way it is today, which is just the opposite.

A lot of the technical terms date back to those early days. Years ago, when the engineers wanted to load a program, they jokingly said the only way to get it loaded was with their BOOT, in the same way they would pull on their boots with a bootstrap... and the term stuck.

Everyone knows that a BYTE is an acronym but a part of a BYTE was dubbed a "nibble".

There are a lot of terms that came from those early days... Have you ever noticed that the Apple Logo... has a bite out of it.?

booting is a process that starts operating systems when the user turns on a computer system. A boot sequence is the set of operations the computer performs when it is switched on that loads an operating system.


An operating system (OS) is the software that manages the sharing of the resources of a computer and provides programmers with an interface used to access those resources. An operating system processes system data and user input, and responds by allocating and managing tasks and internal system resources as a service to users and programs of the system. At the foundation of all system software, an operating system performs basic tasks such as controlling and allocating memory, prioritizing system requests, controlling input and output devices, facilitating networking and managing file systems. Most operating systems come with an application that provides a user interface for managing the operating system, such as a command line interpreter or graphical user interface. The operating system forms a platform for other system software and for application software.

The most commonly-used contemporary desktop and laptop (notebook) OS is Microsoft Windows. More powerful servers often employ Linux, FreeBSD, and other Unix-like systems. However, these operating systems, especially Mac OS X, are also used on personal computers.
