In computing, booting (booting up) is a bootstrapping process that starts operating systems when the user turns on a computer system. The bootloader typically loads the main operating system for the computer. A very small program (usually residing in ROM) which reads a fixed location on a disk (eg. the MBR) and passes control over to it.

What is boot strapping and where does the boot strap programm reside in a memory?

There are several meanings of Boot Strapping, but you mentioned a memory I will assume that you are talking about booting an operating system.Boot Strapping is technique where simple computer programs load and runs more complex programs.For example trying load operating system:BIOS (Basic Input Output System) - is the simple computer program.Boot Loader (Software that loads actual operating system) - is more complex software.When you press "Turn On" button on your computer BIOStakes action and starts testing hardware after that it looks in the first boot device for the first sector of the disk. One sector is 512 bytes long and here should be your code that BIOS will execute, in our case it is our Boot Loader. This first sector is called MBR (Master Boot Record) or VBR (Volume Boot Record) (depends on the structure on the first sector) and it should have 0xAA55 bytes on the end or BIOS will return error.After this our Boot Loader is now simple program which loads even more complex one, operating system.
