==Original Abstract Submitted==

A boot verification method is applied to an electronic device having a secure boot function. An algorithm selection identifier is set in the electronic device to indicate an algorithm used by the electronic device in a boot process, so that on the basis of supporting a plurality of algorithms, the electronic device can select, based on the algorithm selection identifier, a corresponding algorithm to perform boot.
