Abstract
The disclosed embodiments provide an efficient method and apparatus for avoiding hangs when a computer system is unable to complete a proper boot. Booting is attempted from each device in a standard boot order list until a successful boot occurs. If the standard boot order list is exhausted without a successful boot, the boot sequence is retried after a predetermined time period.
