4ntldr loads o.s.
boot process:first
loads [Link] ntldr will be in [Link] it loads os. [Link] shows available os for selection
[Link] check for hardware [Link] loads drivers for devices.
Booting process are classified into 5 steps.
[Link]
[Link] MBR reads the boot sector which is the first sector of the active partition.
[Link] locket path of os from [Link]
[Link] to run [Link] to get information about installed hardware.
