Estimating the term…
An information processing device is provided in which a valid initial program is transferred to a RAM while avoiding a invalid block which is present in a low reliable storage device, such as a NAND-type flash memory or the like. A management information storing section 29 stores management information 30 indicating a position of a invalid block in a first storage device 31. When an information processing device 1 is powered on, a transfer determination section 20 is controlled to read a BSP 26 from a valid block of a first storage device 11 based on the management information 30, and transfer the BSP 26 to a second storage device 32. Thereby, it is possible to avoid reading of a invalid block present in the first storage device 31.
An information processing device for performing a system boot using a program stored in a non-volatile storage device, comprising:
An information processing method for an information processing device comprising a first storage device including a valid block and a invalid block and previously storing a program for performing a system boot in the valid block in a non-volatile manner, a second storage device, management information indicating a position of the invalid block present in the first storage device, and a CPU, the method comprising:
