identifier if a device is installed.
If you install a hard drive that does not feature auto IDE type
detection or your IDE hard drive was formatted on another
system with parameters different from those reported by the
drive, enter a parameter for each of the fields in the device
submenu.
Bring up a device submenu by pressing Enter. The submenus

When set to Auto, the values for Cylinders, Heads, Sectors,
and Maximum Capacity are displayed but are read only.

of, not the translation mechanism that was used to format the
drive. If a drive is run in a mode other than the mode in which
it was partitioned and formatted, unpredictable results may
occur, including data loss.
When set to None, informs the system to ignore this drive.
When set to CD-ROM, IDE Removable, ATAPI Removable, or
