Applying Power

When you power up (or when you reset) the system, the firmware executes
some self-checks and proceeds to the hardware initialization. The system
startup flows in a predetermined sequence, following the hierarchy
inherent in the processor and the MVME2300SC hardware. The figure
below charts the flow of the basic initialization sequence that takes place
during system startup.
