    Which of the following is one of the five UEFI boot process phases?

    • RT Phase

    • PIE Phase

    • PAI Phase

    • BSD Phase

    Correct Answer
    A. RT Phase
    Explanation
    The RT Phase is one of the five UEFI boot process phases. UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) is a specification that defines a software interface between the operating system and the platform firmware. The RT Phase stands for Runtime Phase, which occurs after the pre-boot phase and involves the execution of UEFI drivers and applications in the operating system runtime environment. This phase allows for the initialization of hardware devices, configuration of system settings, and the loading of additional software components required for the operating system to run properly.
