Boot Order Allows you to:
• Specify the order in which attached devices (such as a USB
flash media device, diskette drive, hard drive, optical drive, or
network interface card) are checked for a bootable operating
system image. Each device on the list may be individually
excluded from or included for consideration as a bootable
operating system source.
• Specify the order of attached hard drives. The first hard drive in
the order will have priority in the boot sequence and will be
recognized as drive C (if any devices are attached).

MS-DOS drive lettering assignments may not apply after a
non-MS-DOS operating system has started.

To boot one time from a device other than the default device
specified in Boot Order, restart the computer and press F9 when the

bootable device and press Enter. The computer then boots from the
selected non-default device for this one time.
