Unlike most IOSes, IOS4 seems to do some verification of the TMD to be loaded involving [[:/sys/cert.sys]] when it starts up. The depth of this verification is not yet known, and it is not known why this code was removed from IOS9 and later.

IOS4 has a number of unusual properties, such as the kernel only allowing 68 threads (and the threads being at a different location in memory) and there being a [[:/dev/sdio/WiFi]] device. Interestingly, IOS4 does not have a [[:/dev/sdio/slotw]].

== Differences from other IOSes ==
 +
* The kernel only allows 68 threads
 +
* Threads are not stored at FFFE0000
 +
* There is a [[:/dev/sdio/WiFi]] device
 +
** There is no [[:/dev/sdio/slotw]], although it appears that slotw may have been an equivalent of WiFi on the main host controller.
 +
* The kernel unmaps [[boot0]] later in its startup
