linux boot sequence

[Rami WEHBI]

Hi all,
 
    I am using the ppc405 and I would like to know, how does linux on this architect detect the available memory size in details !!!
        is it a parameter passed to linux at startup by the boot loader ??
        is it an automatic detection ?? what are the steps to accomplish this job then ???
 
Best regards to all,
 
Rami
