preferred slot locations. If not, consider the boot order (see Figure 4-3)
when choosing the accessory board socket in which to install the board.
Figure 4-3. Accessory Board PCI and ISA Slots
Boot order for PCI controllers is determined by slot location. The system
searches for a bootable device in the following order:
a. IDE CD-ROM drive with a bootable CD-ROM.
b. Flexible disk drive with a bootable flexible disk.
c. Embedded SCSI controller or HP integrated NetRAID controller.
d. PCI boards in slots in the following order: 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
This boot order can be changed using the Setup utility (press [F2] during
the boot process).
2. Remove the slot cover for each slot to be used, and store it for future use.
If you are installing any full-length PCI boards, also remove the accessory
board retainer (see Figure 4-4). Push on the tab on the retainer to release
it, and then slide it out of the board guide.
