MultiBoot: Invokes the Mulitboot menu which provides several
functions:

(CHRP) compliant operating system to boot
In the case of AIX this is a supported option, if you receive
an informational icon after making this selection this would
mean that information in non-volatile storage could have
been lost, as would happen if the battery had been
removed. In order to recreate this value, issue the bootlist
command under AIX with the appropriate parameters as to
the location of the operating system in a particular hard
disk. Please see the explanation of the bootlist command
in your AIX documentation.
