MultiBoot
This selection invokes the Mulitboot menu which provides several functions:

In the case of AIX this is a supported option, if you receive a an informational
icon after making this selection this means 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. See the explanation of the bootlist command in your AIX documenta-
tion.
