Select Software : If this option is supported by the operating system, this option shows the names of the operating system installed. This option may not be supported by all operating systems.

If you are running on AIX and you receive the following:

No Operating System Installed

This would mean that information in nonvolatile storage could have been lost, as would happen if the battery had been removed. To re-create this value, run the bootlist command under AIX with the appropriate parameter. See the bootlist command in your AIX documentation.

Software Default : If this option is supported by the operating system, you can select the default operating system to start the system. This option may not be supported by all operating systems.

Select Install Device : Produces a list of devices, for example the CD-ROM, from which the operating system is installed. Select a device, and the system searches

the device for an operating system to install and if supported by the operating system in that device, the name of the operating system displays.
