-				Regarding the software side of things on mobile devices, the main CPU (inside the SoC) starts by executing initial boot code, often known as the bootrom.
-				This code will look up various places such as NAND, eMMC or MMC (sd/micro sd card) storage, depending on the hardware configuration, to load a bootloader.
+				Regarding the software side of things on mobile devices, the main CPU (inside the SoC) starts by executing code burned inside its silicon.
+				That code cannot be changed without fabricating a new chip.
+				If this is an ARM CPU, that code will be ARM instructions.

 				The kernel itself, among other things, deals with the hardware directly and provides ways for other programs (running in user-space) to access it.
