BIOS is given the control.
BIOS loads the first 512 bytes of the Hard disk in memory location 0x7c00. This is nothing but the boot loader located in the MBR.
BIOS passes CPU control to this location and execution begins. This bootloader loads the appropriate kernel image in memory and puts CPU in protected mode from real mode.
