following warning message "Remove the duplicate entry from the input list." is displayed.
Boot order type
The boot order type displays the type of the loaded conguration. The two types of boot order are Legacy and UEFI. If the host system le
is loaded, and then it displays the currently active boot order type. If a saved le is loaded, and then it displays the boot order type that is
saved in the le.
The common scenarios for boot order type are:
• If boot order type is not specied in the le and if any UEFI devices are present on the system, and then the system displays the boot
order type as UEFI.
• If the boot order type is not specied in the le and if any legacy devices (other than hdd) are present on the system, and then the
system displays the boot order type as Legacy.
• If the boot order type is not specied and the loaded conguration le has only hdd items, and then the system prompts the user to
select the boot order type.
• If the boot order type is not specied for a legacy system and if both UEFI and legacy devices are present, and then the system
displays a warning message and removes the legacy or UEFI devices depending on the order of occurrence of the device.
