Windows NT Server 3.51
Primary Operating System
PK-0737A-96
Note: ARC vs AlphaBIOS
With ARC firmware, the group of values associated with a particular
Windows NT installation are called a “boot selection,” and information is
accessed from separate menus using the Manage Boot Selections menu.
With AlphaBIOS, these values are called an “operating system selection,”
and information is accessed through the Operating System Selection Setup
menu. Alternative choices for values such as disk and partition numbers
are available from drop-down list boxes, and only valid values are
displayed. When creating new selections, you can use an existing
selection as a template.
