Which of the following information is stored within the BIOS? (Choose TWO correct answers.)

The BIOS setup stores the boot device priority sequence in non-volatile CMOS RAM so the firmware knows which device to try first when initializing POST and handing off to a bootloader.

The Linux kernel version is part of the operating system software and is stored on disk; the BIOS has no knowledge of or storage for OS-level software versions.

Timezone is an operating system or application-level setting stored in files such as /etc/timezone; the BIOS only tracks the hardware clock value, not the timezone interpretation.

The BIOS retains hardware configuration settings such as CPU parameters, memory timing, enabled/disabled onboard controllers, and virtualization flags, which the firmware uses to initialize hardware before the OS loads.

The system hostname is configured within the OS (e.g., /etc/hostname) and is never stored in BIOS firmware.
