18 Using CCTK GUI
If the boot order type is not specified and the loaded configuration file has
only
hdd
items, the system prompts the user to select the boot order type.
If the boot order type is not specified for a legacy BIOS system and if you
add both UEFI and legacy devices, the system displays a warning and
removes the legacy or UEFI devices depending on the order of occurence
of the devices.
