Abstract
A method and apparatus for marking current memory configuration is presented. In this regard, an enhanced Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) is introduced to initialize system memory during an initial boot and to store initialization settings in a non-volatile memory for use during a subsequent boot.
Claims28
A method comprising:
- initializing system memory during an initial boot;
- and
- storing initialization settings in a non-volatile memory for use during a subsequent boot.
A machine-readable medium having stored thereon sequences of instructions that when executed by one or more processors cause the one or more processors to:
- initialize system memory during an initial boot;
- and
- store initialization settings in a non-volatile memory for use during a subsequent boot.
A computing device comprising:
- means for initializing system memory during an initial boot;
- and
- means for storing initialization settings in a non-volatile memory for use during a subsequent boot.
An apparatus comprising:
- a dynamic memory;
- a non-volatile memory;
- and
- a basic input/output system (BIOS) to initialize the dynamic memory during an initial boot and to store initialization settings in the non-volatile memory for use during a subsequent boot.
