BIOS Setup
3.1.2.6 RAID or SCSI Card Boot
If you want the system to boot from a drive that is connected to
the RAID IDE connector or SCSI add-in card, you must first select
“SCSI” in the “First Boot Device” field.
If there are drives connected to both the RAID IDE connector and
SCSI add-in card, you must select which drive you want to boot.
RAID
The drive is connected to the RAID IDE connector
that is on the system board.
SCSI Card
The drive is connected to the SCSI add-in card that
is installed in a PCI slot.
If the drive is connected to either one of them only, you don’t need
to particularly select an option in this field because the system will
automatically detect for the existing drive.
3.1.2.7 Hard Disk Boot Priority
This field is used to select the boot sequence of the hard drives.
Move the cursor to this field then press <Enter>.
3.1.2.8 First Boot Device, Second Boot Device, Third Boot Device and
Boot Other Device
Select the drive to boot first, second and third in the “First Boot
Device” “Second Boot Device” and “Third Boot Device” fields
respectively. The BIOS will boot the operating system according to
the sequence of the drive selected. Set “Boot Other Device” to
Enabled if you wish to boot from another device.
3.1.2.9 Swap Floppy Drive
When this field is enabled and the system is booting from the floppy
drive, the system will boot from drive B instead of drive A. When
this field is disabled and the system is booting from the floppy drive,
the system will boot from drive A. You must have two floppy drives
to use this function.
