Boot Sequence
Use this option to set the system boot sequence. You can
select a boot from ‘C only’ to slightly speed the booting
process when the system boots from an external hard disk
drive. To boot from the A: drive, change the sequence to
‘A then C.’
About Drive Letter
Assignment
If you specify an IDE Adapter 0 Master drive, it becomes
drive ‘C’ and serves as the boot drive. If you specify an
IDE Adapter 0 Slave drive, it becomes drive ‘D.’ If you
use an ATA PC card, it carries the drive ‘C’ designation
and replaces the IDE hard disk drive. An exception occurs
if you use Card and Socket Services software drivers to
access the ATA PC card. In this case, the hard disk drive
retains the ‘C’ drive designation and the software driver
controls the PC card interface. Any activated BIOS
extension supersedes the C: drive setup in the BIOS. Thus
if the RFA contains a bootable image, it becomes the C:
drive and an IDE drive switches to the D: drive. The last
BIOS image copied into a region of the RFA becomes the
C: drive, so if you activate multiple BIOS extensions, you
can push an IDE drive setup as C: all the way to E:, which
would not be visible to the system.
