On reboot, SWITCH100.app will become the default primary application file to
boot!

Auto-booting....................
One of the following cases may occur when the system is rebooting:
z
The main boot file is correct and the system boots with the main boot file.
z
An error occurs to the main boot file, so the system boots with the backup boot file.
z
An error occurs to both the main and backup files, so the system randomly
chooses an application file for booting.
z
If the system fails to boot with the randomly-chosen application file, it supposes
that the file system is unavailable or no correct boot file is available and thus stops
choosing a boot file.
