THE Bootloader on Android devices it is something similar to BIOS on PCs, and when the device is activated, its main role is to search for the Partition (boot partition) of boot.img which is responsible for the smooth start of the device.

When the device is initially manufactured, the bootloader is signed with the device manufacturer's key. Once the code located in its boot partition is successfully executed boot.img (a hidden partition on the device), then it will then try to load it system.img, which is the partition where all the MIUI system files are located.
