Specifying MultiBoot Preferences
You can set either:
■
A continuing startup sequence that the notebook uses each
time it starts up.
or
■
A variable startup sequence, called MultiBoot Express, that
sets the notebook to prompt you for a startup location each
time it is started or restarted.
You set the MultiBoot Express timeout as you set up the prompt.
If you do not press a key or select a startup medium within the
timeout, the notebook continues startup according to the current
MultiBoot sequence.
