Firmware boot

Overview

There are two ways of booting the firmware: running the IPL, or using reboot.bin (TODO: describe more). The sysmem.prx and then the loadcore.prx modules are started by reboot.bin (/the IPL?).

Loadcore

Loadcore starts all the main PSP modules, including init.prx. In detail, these modules are:

 * Exception Manager, 
 * Interruption Manager, 
 * Thread Manager, 
 * Direct Memory Access Controller Manager, 
 * System Timer, 
 * I/O File Manager,
 * memlmd_0X, 
 * Module Manager, 
 * Init

Init

Init.prx starts the VSH / game modules.
