Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for memory recovery partitions are described. A memory system may include a memory array configured with one or more logical partitions. In some examples, a primary boot image may be stored to a first logical partition and a recovery boot image may be stored to a second logical partition. During a boot operation, the memory system may determine whether the primary boot image includes one or more errors. If the primary boot image includes relatively few (or no) errors, the memory system may boot using the primary boot image. If the primary boot image includes a relatively high quantity of errors (e.g., higher than a threshold quantity of errors), the memory system may autonomously load a recovery boot image stored to the second logical partition.
