Can anyone point me to a Web page that explains the
Linux boot sequence at a high level? I'm not looking
for nitty gritty information. In fact, I'm talking
about skipping entirely over the details of what goes
on in the kernel. I mean something like:

o Kernel loads and starts
o init starts
o inittab looked at
o runs through startup scripts ...

etc., but I need to get the pieces in the right order.
I'll be teaching a class that includes a birds eye view
of Linux booting and shutdown, and need to be sure I've
got my information straight.

I need this sorta soon, so direct email responses would
be much appreciated, since I tend to miss some things
on the list.

Thanks much
