Utility
10.1.1 Boot Initialization with BIOS Boot Specification (BBS)
The LSI FC BIOS supports the BIOS Boot Specification (BBS), which
allows you to choose which device to boot from by selecting the priority.
To use this feature, the system BIOS must also be compatible with the
BBS. If the system supports the BBS, you can use the system BIOS
setup menu to select the boot order and drive order. In the system BIOS
setup, the Boot Connection Devices menu lists the available boot options.
Use that menu to select the device and rearrange the order. Then exit to
continue the boot process.
10.1.2 CD-ROM Boot Initialization
The FC BIOS supports boot initialization from a CD-ROM drive. The
types of emulation are:
•
No emulation disk
•
Floppy 1.2 Mbyte emulation disk
•
Floppy 1.44 Mbyte emulation disk
•
Floppy 2.88 Mbyte emulation disk
•
Hard disk emulation
The type of emulation assigns the drive letter for the CD-ROM. For
example, if a 1.44 Mbyte floppy emulation CD is loaded, the CD-ROM
drive becomes the designated A: drive, and the existing floppy drive
becomes the B: drive.
