Boot Sequence
The Boot menu allows you to select among the four possible types of boot devices
listed using the up and down arrow keys. By using the <+> or
can promote devices and by using the <-> key, you can demote devices.

search for a boot device on system power up. Configuration fields include
Removable Devices, IDE Hard Drive, ATAPI CD-ROM, and Other Boot Device.

sequence. Pressing [Enter] will show the product IDs of all connected IDE hard
disk drives.

be reassigned by the OS. If you installed a non-PnP OS or if you want to prevent
