Boot From File

Use this option to manually run a specific application or driver.

	application, you return to this menu.

This option displays the file systems that are on your server or workstation and lets you browse these file systems for applications or drivers that are executable. Executable files end with the .efi extension. You can also select remote boot (LAN) options that have been configured on your network.
