Zusammenfassung:An example computing device comprises a processor to be coupled to a display device, and a boot controller coupled to the processor and to be coupled to the display device. The boot controller is configured to detect a power signal, receive sensor data detected by one or more sensors prior to an operating system being loaded by a boot process of the processor, determine a posture associated with the display device based on the sensor data detected by the one or more sensors, and communicate, to the display device, posture information indicating the posture associated with the display device. Pre-boot content is to be displayed on a display panel of the display device in a first arrangement based on the posture information. In more specific embodiments, determining the posture includes determining at least an orientation of the display device and whether a peripheral is present on the display device.
