First, when you power up the system the bios goes through a POST, which 
is power-on self test. This just checks that hardware is working, etc. 
Then it looks for a boot sektor, which must be 512 bytes long and end 
with a magic number, and loads the kernel. From there, you can look at 
the head.s assembly, and I think someone posted a tutorial here a while 
back--maybe they'll post that again.



Thank you
