Abstract
A computer-implemented method, for booting a computer system, that provides a list with entries of startup processes. Each startup process defines a resource of the computer system. For each startup process a requirement is defined. The method further comprises fetching one of the entries of the list with entries of startup processes; determining whether the requirement is satisfied for the one of the entries of the list with entries of startup processes; fetching, in case the requirement is not fulfilled, a next one of the entries of the list with entries of startup processes; starting, in case the required resource is fulfilled, the startup process; and repeating the fetching a next one of the entries, the determining and the starting until all startup processes of the list of startup processes have been started.
