Boot Menu (Figure 7.8)

This menu allows you to set the order in which devices are checked for

an operating system at boot. The WinBook notebook will check the devices in the order selected and load the operating system from the first device with one installed. The items with a [+]/[-] beside them are expandable categories. Hit [Enter] to expand or collapse the category. [Ctrl]+[Enter] expands all the categories. [Shift]+[1] enables or disables a device. A disabled device will not be checked during the boot process.

To move a device up or down in the boot order, use the [+] or [-] key. This is true of categories or devices within a category. If you will be boot- ing from a floppy or CD-ROM/R/RW drive, you should set these devices to be checked prior to the Hard Drive category.

If you have a bootable add-in card, you should set this card to be checked prior to the internal hard drive within the Hard Drive category.
