Week 3, The Boot Process & the MBR

In this video, we discuss the boot process on a high level as well as take a fairly detailed look at the MBR. We'll create a suitable BIOS partition by hand, utilizing the dd(1) command because using fdisk(8) would be just too easy. In the process, we learn a fair bit about the structure of the boot sector.

(I really should do an update of this with UEFI/GPT...)
