A system to be booted by use of a flash memory and a method of booting the system are described. The system includes a flash memory including a data register, a boot handler code, a bootstrap loader code, a bootstrap code and an OS code, wherein the boot handler code and the bootstrap loader code are loaded into the data register by the flash memory when power is applied to the system; a system memory; and a central processing unit loading the bootstrap loader code in the data register into the system memory by executing the boot handler code and then loading the bootstrap code and the OS code into the system memory by executing the bootstrap loader code. Thus, since a specific control logic or additional memory such as ROM are not required for using the flash memory as a boot memory, time required for design and system costs can be reduced.
