10. For the OS USB selection, choose: Linux OS.
11. Press the down-arrow key to highlight Save Values and Reboot RSA and
then press <enter>.
The system will pause for a few moments while the RSA reboots. When the

12. Press Esc three times.
You are returned to the Configuration/Setup Utility screen.
