Making an Array Bootable
Notes:
If the controller is not a boot device, you can disable its
runtime BIOS. (For details, see the table on page A-10.) When
the BIOS is disabled, it does not occupy any of the expansion
ROM region of the systems memory map. In a system with
several expansion ROMs, disabling the BIOS may be helpful.
The controller always uses the lowest numbered array as its
bootable array. If you delete Array 00, the next lowest
numbered array becomes the bootable array.
You cannot make a non-00 array bootable while the array
is in a build/verify or rebuild process.
You may need to change the system BIOS to modify the
boot order. For more information, refer to the system
documentation.
