Examples associated with boot data validity are described. One example includes determining whether NVRAM boot data structure is valid. When the NVRAM boot data structure is valid, a NVRAM boot data structure validity flag is set to indicate the boot data structure is invalid. The validity flag is set to indicate the NVRAM boot data structure is valid once a point in a startup process is reached that indicates the startup process will complete successfully. When the NVRAM boot data structure is invalid, errors identified in the NVRAM boot data structure are repaired, and the startup process is restarted.
