The bootloader resides in an eeprom on the motherboard or something?

    Kinda, theres actually multiple chained together. All of them handing control over to software more complicated than the last. The end goal is to load and hand control over to a kernal on stored on a writable storage media. The one on the eeprom is the first one (the BIOS).

    Thanks for coming to my ted talk.
