5�4�5 Selecting a Boot Disk
You can select a boot dsk n the SAS Topology screen. Ths dsk s then moved to scan
ID 0 on the next boot, and remans at ths poston. Ths makes t easer to set BIOS
boot devce optons and to keep the boot devce constant durng devce addtons and
removals. There can be only one boot dsk.
Follow these steps to select a boot dsk:
In the SAS BIOS CU, select an adapter from the Adapter Lst.
Select the SAS Topology opton. The current topology s dsplayed. If the se-
lecton of a boot devce s supported, the bottom of the screen lsts the Alt+B
opton. Ths s the key for togglng the boot devce. If a devce s currently con-
figured as the boot device, the Device Info column on the SAS Topology screen
wll show the word “Boot.”
To select a boot dsk, move the cursor to the dsk and press Alt+B.
To remove the boot desgnator, move the cursor down to the current boot dsk
and press Alt+B. Ths controller wll no longer have a dsk desgnated as boot.
To change the boot dsk, move the cursor to the new boot dsk and press Alt+B.
The boot desgnator wll move to ths dsk.
Note: The firmware must be configured correctly in order for the Alt+B feature to
work.
