Abstract: A process for starting a data processing installation, and associated components, wherein program commands of a bootstrap program are stored in a bootstrap memory unit and, when executing the bootstrap program, a processor controls the transfer of program commands from a reload memory unit to a main memory unit and, after the transfer operation, execution of the program commands stored in the main memory unit during the transfer operation is started, the bootstrap memory unit and/or the reload memory unit being serial-access memory units which are less expensive than memory units used previously.
