Quick Boot is for those developers not familiar with Intel(R) Architecture in general who want to develop their own firmware to meet educational or commercial needs. Booting should be easy. While the open source community provides some raw code and materials, this book provides the guidance and explanations on how to create, craft, and hone them into a finished product. The majority of the technical ground in the system firmware space is not taught in college, and is normally learned only through many years of on-the-job experience. The goal is to make it easy for a designer new to Intel architecture to understand and optimize the firmware for their design, and ease the learning curve to develop and debug the code that gets system ready for the operating system.
