Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a first storage storing an operating system program, a second storage including a boot program storage area, a first area and a second area, and a processor coupled to the first storage and the second storage. The processor writes the first path information, which is stored in the first area and used to boot up the operating system program, into the second area, upon first booting-up, compares the first path information in the first area and the second path information in the second area upon second booting-up subsequent to the first booting-up, determines whether the operating system program indicated by the first path information is to be booted up based on a result of the comparing, and writes the second path information into the first area when the operating system program indicated by the first path information is not to be booted up.
