Hi: Recently we had some discussion on the Linux boot process.
Found an interesting write up by Greg O'Keefe which describes what happens in a Linux system, from the time you turn on the power, to the time that you log in and get a bash prompt. The article is well written and has some excerises as well. Please take a look at http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/From-PowerUp-To-Bash-Prompt-HOWTO.html thanks Saifi.
