CAUTION
A bootable CD-ROM may have a floppy disk format or
a hard drive format. When the bootable CD-ROM is
used, the drive allocations change automatically with-
out changing the BIOS setup. If a floppy disk format
CD-ROM is used, the CD-ROM becomes Drive A. The
CD-ROM will only take Drive C: (hard drive format) if
the internal hard drive is not present or is disabled. The
bootable CD-ROM can never use a C: designation if a
formatted internal hard drive is present, since the C:
designator is always reserved for the internal hard
drive.The boot sequence ignores the new drive designa-
tions, but your application software will use the new
designations.
CAUTION
Be careful of the operating environment when booting
from a CD-ROM or you may overwrite files by mistake.
