DIM Code CheckpointsACPI Runtime Checkpoints
Checkpoint 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.
38 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.
