 Introduction

-System Initialization
----------------------

-System Initialization begins with board reset and continues through RTEMS
-initialization, initialization of all device drivers, and eventually a context

-initialization and the *initialization context* is not a task in any sense and

 The Idle Task

 The Idle Task is the lowest priority task in a system and executes only when no
