3-2 AcceleRAID 170 Installation Guide
Setting BIOS Options
The available BIOS options are:
• BIOS disabled / enabled
• CD-ROM boot disabled / enabled
• 2GB / 8GB drive geometry
BIOS Disable or Enable
This option must be enabled in order to toggle the CD-ROM boot parameter
shown in the BIOS Options menu. The BIOS must also be enabled in order
to boot from any device (e.g., CD-ROM) or system drive configured on the
controller, or to access any DOS partition on any drive configured on the
controller.
When BIOS Disable or Enable is selected, the following message will be
displayed. Press the
Esc key to restart the system and then watch the screen
for the following messages.
CD-ROM Boot Disable or Enable
The default for this option is for the CD-ROM boot to be disabled (e.g., the
system will boot from a hard drive, even if there is a bootable CD-ROM
installed–attached to the AcceleRAID 170). If the CD-ROM boot option is
enabled, and if a bootable CD is installed in the CD-ROM drive, the system
can boot from the CD, you will also get an option to bypass the CD-ROM
boot feature.
If the CD-ROM boot option is enabled, the CD-ROM attached to the
AcceleRAID 170 will take priority over the disk drives. For example, under
MS-DOS, the disk drive that is normally
Drive C will become Drive D . All
subsequent drive IDs will similarly be moved down.
