ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a computer system which includes multiple levels of bootstrap code. The first level of bootstrap code is stored in a non-volatile storage means associated with a host processor. A second non-volatile storage means is provided which stores a second level of bootstrap code. A processor means, separate from the host processor, controls access by the host system to both the first and second non-volatile storage means. The second non-volatile storage means in the preferred embodiment is electrically writable and erasable by the host computer system, by the processor means associated with the second non-volatile storage means, or by an input device provided for that purpose.
