3. Select Boot Settings Configuration.
4. On the Boot Settings Configuration screen, there are several options that you
can enable or disable:
■
Quick Boot
– This option is disabled by default. If you enable this option, the
BIOS skips certain tests while booting, such as the extensive memory test.
This action decreases the time it takes for the system to boot.
■
Quiet Boot
– This option is disabled by default. If you enable this option, the
Sun Microsystems logo is displayed instead of POST codes.
■
Add On ROM Display Mode
– This option is set to Force BIOS by default.
This option has effect only if you have also enabled the Quiet Boot option, but
this option controls whether output from the Option ROM is displayed. The
two settings for this option are as follows:
■
Force BIOS
– Remove the Sun logo and display Option ROM output.
■
Keep Current
– Do not remove the Sun logo. The Option ROM output is not
displayed.
■
Boot Num-Lock
– This option is on by default (keyboard Num-Lock is turned
on during boot). If you set this to off, the keyboard Num-Lock is not turned
on during boot.
■
Wait for F1 if Erro
r – This option is disabled by default. If you enable this
option, the system will pause if an error is found during POST and will only
resume when you press the F1 key.
■
Interrupt 19 Capture
– This option is reserved for future use. Do not change.
■
Default Boot Order
– The letters in the brackets represent the boot devices.
To see the letters defined, position your cursor over the field and read the
definition in the right side of the screen.
