Verified Boot
Read Only firmware verifies the integrity of Read/Write (R/W) firmware. R/W firmware verifies the active Linux kernel. During
run time, the kernel verifies each block read from disk.
If a verification step fails and there is no backup option, the machine enters recovery mode.
The Developer Mode switch turns off verified boot (at the Kernel stage) to enable users to run Chromium OS (or other OS).
24
Software
Page 25
Disk Partition Map
There are two copies of Chrome OS on disk: an active copy and a backup copy. Each copy consists of a kernel partition and a
root file system. The backup copy is updated automatically in the background. Users only need to reboot. The stateful partition
contains encrypted user data.
