IBM SA38-0512-03 Server User Manual


 
Attention: If you change your startup sequence, you must be extremely careful
when performing
write
operations (for example, copying, saving, or
formatting). You can accidentally overwrite data or programs if you select the
wrong drive.
The default boot list consists of the first device found of each of the following types.
Diskette drive
CD-ROM drive
Hard disk drive
Network device.
To change the custom boot list, enter a new order in the New column, then select
Save. The List of Boot Devices is updated to reflect the order you have chosen.
You can choose 1 to 4 devices for the custom boot list. To change the boot
sequence back to the default values, select Default. (The default sequence is
automatically saved.)
Attention: If no user-defined boot-list exists, and the privileged-access password
has been enabled, you are asked for the privileged-access password at
startup every time you boot up your system. See “Privileged-Access
Password” on page 7-15 for more information on the privileged-access
password.
