What Boot delivers
- Everything in Splash
- Status and progress tied to observed milestones
- Approved custom status text
- Defined fallback to real-time rendering
GraphLab Boot · Status and fallback
Keep every startup state clear and controlled.
Add observed status, meaningful progress, approved custom text, and defined fallback to a continuously active display path.
Defined scope
Know exactly what Boot includes.
Every engagement is assessed and accepted against the target hardware, firmware, display path, Linux stack, and readiness contract.
4 included
Operating sequence
One controlled path from power-on to Linux UI.
Power on
GraphLab Core starts and becomes display authority.
Observed progress
Agreed boot, display, and UI-ready milestones drive visible states.
Linux ready
The accepted Linux frame becomes visible without rebuilding the active panel path.
Fallback available
Restart, maintenance, or recovery can return to the defined real-time render state.
Real hardware proof
The published reference makes the boundary visible.
The GraphLab Boot reference on Toradex Verdin iMX8M Plus reaches its first visible pixel in approximately 800 ms. That result belongs to the validated Boot setup and is not a performance promise for Boot on another configuration.
