Using the System Setup Program 2-11

NOTE: Non-Plug and Play devices appear in this list as

Adapters without ID
support

.

When determining the order of devices to boot from, the system first considers the
order of the devices listed under the Device Controller Priority option, then the order
of devices under Boot Device Priority.
To specify your priority preferences, order the devices under these options so that the
highest-priority controller is at the top of the Device Controller Priority option and the
highest-priority device is at the top of the Boot Device Priority option. Order the
remainder of the devices in the Boot Device Priority option according to your prefer-
ences. Move any devices that you want the system to ignore during system start-up
into the Exclude From Boot Device Priority option.

NOTE: The system defines drive C in the Boot Device Priority option as the first hard-

disk drive attached to the highest-priority device controller. Therefore, if you have a

SCSI adapter installed in your computer and you want the SCSI drive 0 to be drive C,

you must move the SCSI adapter item to the top of the Device Controller Priority

option.

To change the order of the devices, press <Ctrl> and the up- or down-arrow key. If you
want to revert to the original Boot Device Priority option settings, press <Ctrl><Del>.

NOTE: If you exit the Device List option by pressing <Esc> or <Alt><b> without mak-

ing any changes, the Boot Sequence option is set to the Device List option.
