 3.2 Selectable Startup

  

 The Selectable Startup function allows the user to control the startup

 sequence (path) of the system.  After the path is changed, the letters of

 the drive designations also change as shown in the following two examples.

  

 To install the Selectable Startup function, the user must go to the Main

 Menu and select Set Features.  At the Set Features menu, select  Set

 startup sequence and follow the instructions on the screen.

  

 If Selectable Startup has not been installed, the system will follow the

 normal startup sequence.

  

 Note:  When the system utilities are run, either from the fixed disk drive

        or the Reference Diskette, the selected startup sequence is

        ignored.  When the user returns to normal operations, the selected

        startup sequence is restored.
