Turning on your computer.

Restarting a computer or its operating system software. It is of two types (1) Cold booting: when the computer is started after having been switched off. (2) Warm booting: when the operating system alone is restarted (without being switched off) after a system crash or 'freeze.' Both types of booting clear out (for the time being) the bugs, bombs, memory conflicts, and other idiosyncrasies of the operating system.

When parking enforcement officials place a metal locking device on a wheel of a vehicle that is parked illegally, or has outstanding parking citations.

So far, all of the answers are correct, you didn't mention the context of "booting", computer wise, it is turning on your computer, car wise, it is as @Jack Large wrote, someone can be exited from a club by "booting" out. Rewrite your question and be more specific....
