Embodiment Construction

[0025] The object of the present invention and its implementation method are described in detail in the following preferred embodiments. However, the concept of the invention can also be used in other areas. The following examples are only used to illustrate the purpose and implementation method of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope thereof.

[0026] figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the system architecture of a computer test platform using a boot kernel in a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to figure 1 , in this embodiment, the computer test platform is divided into two major parts of software and hardware 140, and the software part is further divided into operating system (not shown), operating system loader 110, boot kernel 120 and drivers corresponding to hardware 140 Firmware 130. Wherein, the boot kernel 120 can be, for example, an Extensible Firmware Interface (Extensible Firmware Interface, EFI) system (her...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for testing a dynamic custom starting core which is hung on a computer test platform in order to test hardware. The method comprises the following steps of: initializing hardware slots of the computer test platform after the computer test platform is started, testing information of the hardware connected in these hardware slots, loading corresponding drivers so as to realize the dynamic connection of the equipment in the starting core, and finishing starting up by the starting core and testing hardware. The starting core automatically loads the drivers according to the information of the hardware so loading of the redundancy unused driver is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a computer test method, and in particular to a test method for dynamically customizing the startup kernel. Background technique [0002] The test platform of computer hardware (hereinafter referred to as the test platform) can choose different operating systems as the execution environment, and common operating systems are, for example, DOS, Windows or Linux operating systems. Choose test platforms with different operating systems, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. For example, a DOS-based test platform has a faster startup speed and faster access to hardware devices. However, the current DOS operating system is no longer developed, resulting in considerable problems in the scalability of hardware devices. In addition, 16 / 32-bit systems do not support the Itanium architecture, nor do they support access to large-capacity memory or hard disks, and the hardware devices that can be driven are also quite lim...
