Linux Boot process
---> ---> 3 stage Linux Boot Process in short
1. Bios executing a short program in MBR (master boot record) of first physical drive. The program is in assembly language of 512 bytes. This is called Boot loader stage. The stage 1 boot resides in MBR and contain sector number of the stage 2 boot located at /boot/grub/grub.conf
2. Stage 2 boot loader presents boot menu based in /boot/grub/grub.conf. It loads the linux kernel. The boot loader loads the kernel, as the kernel boots up it scans the hardware, loads the loadable modules it needs and starts process number 1 i.e. /sbin/init
3. Stage 3 process parses the request from /sbin/init to /etc/inittab file. The inittab file holds the default run level by which it starts loading. There are 7 different run levels from 0 to 6. All this run level use the following file /etc/rc.d/rc[0-6]/ directory. Depending on the prefix to a file service is started or killed. S means started and K means killed.
