RouterBOOT booter - is it part of x86 version of ROS?

Fri Oct 30, 2015 9:24 pm

Hi,

is the RouterBOOT booter present in the x86 version of RouterOS or is it a part of RouterBOARD devices only?

No, on x86 BIOS loads ROS. On embeded platforms (like RouterBoard) there's no such thing as BIOS - they use specialized bootloaders (e.g. Das U-Boot or RouterBOOT).
