Abstract
Method and system aspects for performing an authenticated boot of a computer system in a networked computing environment are provided. The aspects include integration of boot manager services into a power on self test (POST) routine of a client system. The client system provides a digital signature for a selected operating system when the POST routine transfers control to a basic input/output system (BIOS) routine. Booting is authorized with the operating system through authentication by a server system of the digital signature.
