Setting the Boot Drive Sequence
The Boot Drive Sequence section lists boot priorities (1st, 2nd
and 3rd) for bootable drives in your computer
For example, the default value (1st:Floppy Disk, 2nd:Hard Disk,
and 3rd:CD-ROM) tells the computer to first search for a bootable
floppy disk in the floppy drive. If it finds one present, it boots
up from that floppy disk. If not, the computer continues by
booting up from the hard disk. If it cannot boot up from the
hard disk, it continues to search for a bootable CD-ROM in the
CD-ROM drive.
