Abstract

A method of booting a host device includes enabling or disabling a ready boot option within a basic input-output system (BIOS) of a host device. A normal boot is performed to load a first operating system (OS), that is stored in an internal storage of the host device, to a main memory of the host device when the ready boot option is disabled. A boot operation to load a second OS, that is stored in an internal storage of a mobile device, to the main memory of the host device is performed when the ready boot option is enabled. An individualized user environment for the host device, is provided by booting the host device from the mobile device. The individualized user environment is easily realized as the user need only connect the mobile device to a designated USB port of the host device prior to restarting the host device.
