Using Easy-Setup
Using the Selectable Drive-Startup Sequence
Attention:
If you change your startup sequence,
you must be extremely careful when
you do write operations (such as
copying, saving, or formatting). Your
data or programs can be overwritten
if you select the wrong drive.
Selectable drive startup
(selectable boot)
allows you to control the
startup sequence of the drives in your computer. The order in which
the computer searches the drives for your operating system is the
drive-startup sequence
. If you are working with multiple operating
systems, you might want to change the drive-startup sequence to
load an operating system from the hard disk or a PC Card without
checking the diskette drive, or to do a remote program load (RPL).
The HDD-1 icon represents the internal hard disk drive installed in
the computer. (If the second hard disk drive is installed in the
UltraBay, it is shown as HDD-2.) The other numbered HDD icons
are external hard disk drives.
FDD-1 represents the first diskette drive found during system
startup. When no diskette drive is installed in the UltraBay and if an
attached docking station has a diskette drive, the diskette drive in
the docking station is the first drive.
