3-16 Configuring Your System
Hard Drive Submenu
For options on this menu, use the up or down arrow keys to select a device, then press the <+> or
<-> keys to move the device higher or lower in the boot priority list.
Option Description
1. Hard Drive #1 (or actual
drive string)
IDE drives will have a suffix attached to the drive ID string:
PM - hard drive on Primary Master Channel
PS - hard drive on Primary Slave Channel
SM - hard drive on Secondary Master Channel
SS - hard drive on Secondary Slave Channel
SCSI CD-ROMs will be displayed here because the onboard Symbios SCSI bios treats CD-ROMs as hard drives.
SCSI removable drives will also appear here.
2. Other Bootable Device Covers all the boot devices that are not reported to the system BIOS through the BIOS boot specification
mechanism. This includes all PCI cards that are not bios boot compliant (legacy) as well as ISA cards that are not
PnP compliant.. ISA legacy cards will boot first before non bios boot compliant PCI cards (in scan order from
lowest slot to highest).
Removable Devices
For options on this menu, use the up or down arrow keys to select a device, then press the <+> or
<-> keys to move the device higher or lower in the boot priority list.
Option Description
