Description

 

 

 

 

2A

Initialize different buses and perform the following functions: Reset, Detect, and Disable

 

 

(function 0); Static Device Initialization (function 1); Boot Output Device Initialization

 

 

(function 2). Function 0 disables all device nodes, PCI devices, and PnP ISA cards. It also

 

 

assigns PCI bus numbers. Function 1 initializes all static devices that include manual

 

 

configured onboard peripherals, memory and I/O decode windows in PCI-PCI bridges, and

 

 

noncompliant PCI devices. Static resources are also reserved. Function 2 searches for

 

 

and initializes any PnP, PCI, or AGP video devices.

Initialize different buses and perform the following functions: Boot Input Device Initialization

 

 

(function 3); IPL Device Initialization (function 4); General Device Initialization (function 5).

 

 

Function 3 searches for and configures PCI input devices and detects if system has

 

 

standard keyboard controller. Function 4 searches for and configures all PnP and PCI boot

 

 

devices. Function 5 configures all onboard peripherals that are set to an automatic

 

 

configuration and configures all remaining PnP and PCI devices.
