Abstract

A system to perform an information handling system (IHS) initialization includes one or more subsystems to receive a command to power on the IHS, initialize a processor cache memory to emulate a random access memory (RAM), determine whether a manufacturing self test is being performed on the IHS, and in response to the manufacturing self test being performed, complete the initialization without a complete memory initialization.
