3.2.5 Boot Adapter List Menu

The Boot Adapter List Menu specifies the order in which adapters boot when more than one Symbios adapter is in a system. Up to four of the total adapters in a system can be selected as bootable. This menu may also list additional adapters in your system that are not bootable. As many as 256 adapters can be listed. To control a Boot Volume, only one of the four “active” controllers can be used.

To select this menu:

1.Press F2 while on the Main Menu to move the cursor to the Optional Menu area.

2.Move the cursor to Boot Adapter List with the arrow keys.

3.Press Enter.

Adapters can be added or deleted using this menu. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to the lower list, the adapter select list, to add or remove an adapter. To add an adapter to the boot list, press the Insert key while on the Boot Adapter List. Use the arrow keys to select the desired adapter and press Enter to add it to the end of the Boot Adapter List. To change the configuration of the adapter, use the arrow keys to move to the configuration you want to alter.

To remove an adapter from the boot list, press the Delete key while on the desired adapter in the Boot Adapter List.

Note: If a new device is added after this utility loads, it can only be seen in the adapter configuration section of this utility after a reboot. You must exit the utility and restart it for the new device to be seen by the Configuration Utility.
