Boot Setup Menu

The Boot Setup menu contains setting related to the boot process and the boot device priority.

• Boot Settings Configuration Submenu—This item accesses the Boot Settings Configuration submenu.
• SCSI Drive Boot—This setting specifies whether or not boot support is enabled for legacy mass storage devices, such as SCSI drives. When enabled, legacy mass storage controllers with boot support will be displayed in the Boot Option Priorities menu. The default value is Enabled.
• PXE Network Boot—This setting specifies whether the PXE network boot agent is enabled. The Intel Boot Agent is visible in the Boot Option Priorities menu when enabled, allowing you to boot from a PXE server on the local subnet. The Intel Boot Agent device names are preceded by IBA GE Slot 0200 v1553 in the Boot Option Priorities menu. The system must be restarted for this setting to take effect. The default value is Disabled.
• Boot Option Priorities—These settings specify the order in which the BIOS checks for bootable devices, including the local hard disk drive, removable devices such as USB flash disk drives or USB CD-ROM drives, or the PXE network boot agent. The BIOS first attempts to boot from the device associated with 1st Boot Device, followed by 2nd Boot Device and 3rd Boot Device. If multiple boot devices are not present, the BIOS setup utility does not display all of these configuration options. To select a boot device, press <Enter> on the desired configuration option and select a boot device from the resulting menu. You can also disable certain boot devices by selecting Disabled.
• When the DISABLE RT switch is not set, the only detectable boot options are LabVIEW RT and LabVIEW RT Safe Mode.
  Note Only one device of a given type is shown in this list. If more than one device of the same type exists, use the appropriate device BBS priorities submenu to re-order the priority of devices of the same type.

The Boot Setup menu displays the following submenus when one or more bootable devices of the corresponding type is present:

• Hard Drive BBS Priorities Submenu—Use this setting to access the Hard Drive BBS Priorities submenu to re-order or disable bootable hard drive devices.
• CD/DVD ROM Drive BBS Priorities Submenu—Use this setting to access the CD/DVD ROM Drive BBS Priorities submenu to re-order or disable bootable CD/DVD ROM drive devices.
• Floppy Drive BBS Priorities Submenu—Use this setting to access the Floppy Drive BBS Priorities submenu to re-order or disable bootable floppy drive devices.
