After you have performed an external visual inspection as described in the pre- vious section, you should boot the system and, while the boot routine is running, observe the system for any indications of problems.

NOTE: Most of the steps in this procedure require observation of system func- tions and indications, some of which can occur simultaneously. It may be necessary to reboot the system several times in order to complete all of these steps.
