Abstract

A method for generating a customized program logic operable to control hardware devices of a target system and to boot said target system includes determining the hardware devices operatively connected with the target system. A list of identifiers of the determined hardware devices is sent to a server system. The server system selects from a set of drivers for each of the device identifiers in the list at least one driver operable to control the identified device to generating a sub-set of said set of drivers. The server system retrieves a core program logic being free of any drivers of the target system and complements the core program logic with said driver sub-set to generate the customized program logic. The customized program logic is then deployed to the target system.
