ABSTRACT = {Wireless network is crucial for the Mobile Transparent Computing (MTC), in which a mobile device 
without any Operating System (OS) support needs to load the demanded OSes and applications 
through accessing the wireless network connection. In this paper, a lightweight approach based on 
the Boot Management System (BMS) was proposed to ensure the wireless network connection before 
booting OS. In BMS, the Virtual File System (VFS) technology was used to drive the wireless network 
card and establish a stable network connection. A prototype of the BMS was tested on ARM11 hardware 
platform and the results demonstrate the validity of the BMS.},
