22 USC and USC - LCE
Before installing the operating system, the OS Deployment wizard detects if
a boot device is available. A boot device is a physical disk, virtual disk, or other
storage device on which the operating system can be installed.
If your system has a RAID controller, you can configure a virtual disk and
choose to use the virtual disk as the boot device.
If your system does not have a RAID controller or if you choose to bypass the
optional RAID configuration, the OS Deployment wizard installs the
operating system to a default location, which is typically the disk identified as
Disk 0 in the BIOS utility.
