Abstract: A system and method for booting a computer system is disclosed. Code is loaded from a minor BIOS image stored on an electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) to a cache of a central processing unit. The central processing unit executes the code from the minor BIOS image to initialize a system memory. A major BIOS image is accessed from a remote site via a controller. Code from the major BIOS image is loaded to the system memory. The code from the major BIOS image is executed via the central processing unit to boot an operating system.

Abstract: Various examples of the present technology provide systems and methods for tracking PPR usage in dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs) of a server system. BIOS of the server system can check a record of the PPR usage before conduct a PPR flow and send a usage status of spare row(s) of a plurality of bank groups of a DIMM to a controller (e.g., BMC) of the server system such that a user or the server system can check PPR status of each DIMM of the server system.
