Floppy/Super Disk/
ZIP

The computer attempts to boot first from a bootable
diskette, Super Disk, or Zip disk. If it does not detect one of
these removable media disks, the computer tries to boot
from the hard-disk drive. If a disk is in its drive, but the disk
does not have the required boot files, an error message
appears.

Internal Hard Drive

The computer boots only from the hard-disk drive. If it fails
to boot from the hard-disk drive, the computer does not
attempt to boot from the diskette drive.
