3.10.2 Phoenix MultiBoot

Phoenix MultiBoot expands your boot options by letting you choose your boot device, which could be a
hard disk, floppy disk, or CD ROM. You can select your boot device in Setup, or you can choose a
different device each time you boot during POST by selecting your boot device in The Boot First Menu.
MultiBoot consists of:
The Setup Boot Menu
The Boot First Menu
Refer to the Boot menu in BIOS setup for more information on Setup Boot Menu. The following describes
the Boot First Menu.

The Boot First Menu

Display the Boot First Menu by pressing during the POST. In response, the BIOS first displays the
message, "Entering Boot Menu ..." and then displays the Boot Menu at the end of POST. Use the menu to
select any of these options:
* Override the existing boot sequence (for this boot only) by selecting another boot device. If the specified

device does not load the operating system, the BIOS reverts to the previous boot sequence.

* Enter Setup.
* Press to continue with the existing boot sequence.

Boot Menu
