Difference between Booting and Network booting

Booting vs. Network booting

In computing, booting is starting up a computer or computer appliance until it can be used. Network booting, shortened netboot, is the process of booting a computer from a network rather than a local drive.

BIOS

BIOS (an acronym for Basic Input/Output System and also known as the System BIOS, ROM BIOS or PC BIOS) is non-volatile firmware used to perform hardware initialization during the booting process (power-on startup), and to provide runtime services for operating systems and programs.
