BCT (Boot Configuration Table) is a data structure present on Tegra based devices that supplies boot time configuration parameters.
BCT (Boot Configuration Table) is a data structure present on Tegra based devices that supplies boot time configuration parameters.


The Switch's BCT is included in the firmware package titles (0100000000000819 and 010000000000081A) and is installed into eMMC storage's [[#Flash_Filesystem#Boot_Partitions|boot partition 0]]. A total of four BCT copies can be installed into the system: normal, normal backup, safe mode and safe mode backup.
The Switch's BCT is included in the firmware package titles (0100000000000819 and 010000000000081A) and is installed into eMMC storage's [[Flash_Filesystem#Boot_Partitions|boot partition 0]]. A total of four BCT copies can be installed into the system: normal, normal backup, safe mode and safe mode backup.
 
The Erista BCT's data is only signed after offset 0x0510. Therefore, regions like [[#CustomerData|CustomerData]] can be freely modified without resigning. This is done by [[NS_Services|NS]] when injecting a new [[Flash_Filesystem#Keyblob|keyblob]] during a system update, for example.
 
The Mariko BCT's data is signed and encrypted after offset 0x0480, so the [[Flash_Filesystem#Keyblob|keyblob]] system is no longer used.


During boot, the boot ROM parses the appropriate BCT from eMMC storage and stores a copy of it in IRAM at address 0x40000000.

==== 1.0.0 - 2.3.0 ====
The version field controls which keyblob is used, where 0x01 is the first one. See [[Cryptosystem]] for the keyblobs used by each system-version.
The version field is set to 0x01, meaning that the first keyblob is to be used.
 
==== 3.0.0 ====
The version field was changed to 0x02, meaning that the second keyblob is now used.
 
==== 3.0.1 ====
The version field was changed to 0x03, meaning that the third keyblob is now used.

When copied to IRAM, the BCT has an additional header as follows.
