Configuring the Boot Device
NOTE: System boot is not supported from an external device attached to a SAS or
SCSI adapter. See support.dell.com for the latest support information about booting
from external devices.
If you plan to boot the system from a hard drive, the drive must be attached to
the primary (or boot) controller. The device that the system boots from is
determined by the boot order specified in the System Setup program
.
The System Setup program provides options that the system uses to scan for
installed boot devices. See "Using the System Setup Program" on page 47 for
information about the System Setup program.
